I have installed 10 PostgreSQL rpm's:
postgresql-7.0.3-2.i386.rpm > postgresql-tk-7.0.3-2.i386.rpm
(including postgresql-test-7.0.3-2.i386.rpm)
obtained from PostgreSQL.org web site. All of the rpm's installed
without a hitch on my RH6.1 system.
I have noticed many discrepancies between the 7.0.3-2 doc's and my
installation, most having to do with the directory structure.
My *rpm installation seems to have a different dir structure
from the *tar.gz installation the docs are talking about.
For example, the regression testing section of the docs refers to:
/usr/src/pgsql/src/test/regress (< does not exist in my install)
While my installation has:
/usr/lib/pgsql/test/regress
While there were no problems with the rpm install, as least as far as
rpm was concerned, I remain unsure if everything is installed properly.
I decided to run the regression tests. Only, I'm running into problems.
From '/usr/lib/pgsql/test/regress/README':
"To prepare for regression testing, do "make all" in the regression
test directory."
That result of that instruction is:
$ make all
GNUmakefile:15: ../../Makefile.global: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `../../Makefile.global'. Stop.
Using 'gmake' gives the same result.
I would appreciate opinions/info on the/my rpm install.
Is it correct?
Am I missing something?
Does anyone have suggestion for getting the testing done?
Any other suggestions?
Thank you for your time.
