Thread: Fedora package status for 1.6.3 and above
Hi, People who are looking for Fedora packages: I am/will not be building packages for Fedora > 6 , since there is a package maintainer for pgadmin3 there and I want to avoid duplicate work. The package builder ( ghenry ~~ suretecsystems dot com ) is a bit late on building packages: Fedora Core 6 has 1.4.3 ( the reason is stated below ) , and development has 1.6.1. So please bug him, not me, about Fedora pgadmin3 package in Fedora repository. The reason that Fedora 6 has 1.4.3 is the wx 2.8 dependency of pgadmin3, that Fedora 6 does not have in its repositories. I will build and upload Fedora Core 6 packages in a few hours; I have already built wx 2.8 on Fedora Core 6.

Waiting for the sync to main FTP site. Thanks Devrim. Can you forward me the current spec files please so I can commit them to SVN. Thanks, Dave

Is the same for Ubuntu :-( - At least if I haven't missed anything. Maybe we could build a generic statically linked binary (for i386 at least) , for those distributions which nobody does up-to-date builds for? If there is interest in this, I could try to build such a package for 1.6.3 in the next few days. Dunno how hard it is to build a version that runs on the majority of the distributions out there though.. greetings, Florian Pflug

Would be pleased to see you work on it (and can help if need be). /D

I've installed debian woody into a chroot, but noticed that the newest gcc it includes is 3.0 - which is pretty acient, and might cause trouble with wx or pgadmin. OTOH, debian sarge contains libc 2.3, not 2.2 like woody. I'm not sure how many peopel still run distros without libc 2.3... Any ideas? Do you guys think that compiling wx+pgadmin3 with gcc 3.0 will work? greetings, Florian Pflug

No idea - we use 3.4.2 iirc on developer.pgadmin.org, so 3.x is definitely feasible. Easiest way is to just give it a go! Regards, Dave.
