Packages for RH7.2

From
Joshua Adam Ginsberg
Date:
Having some problems with the Redhat packages on a fresh install of
RH7.2... looks like some libraries got updated and the 7.1.3 packages
are still expecting the old ones...

What the packages expect & what RH7.2 provides:
libcrypto.so.1 vs. libcrypto.so.0.9.6b
libreadline.so.4.1 vs. libreadline.so.4.2
libssl.so.1 vs. libssl.so.0.9.6b

These come from the openssl and readline packages provided with RH7.2...
are there any plans to make a different build of the RPMS that tolerate
these new versions?

Thanks!

Redhat 7.2 ships with compatibility packages (on CD 2):

readline41-4.1-10.i386.rpm
openssl096-0.9.6-6.i386.rpm

Install those, and the RPMS from the PostgreSQL website will
work. Note, though, that Redhat 7.2 also ships with Redhat-compiled
PostgreSQL RPMS, too. You could use those instead if you wanted.

You seem to be using some out-of-date client software.  There is no
such restriction in the server, but some of the interface libraries
might still think they can limit the length of query strings.

Unfortunately, you didn't say what you were using on the client side.

You could roll your own rpms if you'd like. Just get the src rpm and do a
little rpm --rebuild postgresl*src.rpm. The re-built rpms should pop up in
your /usr/src/redhat/RPMS directory.
