Re: skytools build for 9.5 (EL-6 and EL-7) - Mailing list pgsql-pkg-yum

Hi,

My experience was specifically with a Fedora 22 with PGDG
postgresql-9.5 packages, where all I did was:

* dnf download --source skytools-94
* rpm -ivh skytools-94-3.2-4.f22.src.rpm
* Edit skytools.spec so it compiles against 9.5 instead of 9.4
* Apply patch Cédric sent
* removed the init file which isn't used in systemd distros
* rpmbuild -ba rpmbuild/SPECS/slytools.spec

I really don't know where those errors come from. Maybe it's on RH6
with old autoconf?

Regards,
