No, but rather that there is a plethora of Linux distributions in various versions
on various architectures, and I'd have to create an RPM for any of them
(not to speak of the distributions that use other package managers).
And on Linux it is really easy to build the binaries.
About the PGDB packages, that's not for me to answer.
Perhaps it is not deemed important enough, perhaps there are technical or
license problems.
