Linux on PowerPc

From
Ananda K Venkataraman

Hello,

  I would like to know about the availability of PostgreSQL for Linux on
PowerPC.  If so what is the latest release (7.3.2)?  If not where to get
the source code and instructions for compiling the PostgreSQL source code.

Thanks,
Sincerely,
Ananda

It depends on which distribution you are using. For example, Debian has
7.3.2 available in the unstable distribution. Sourcecode can be downloaded
from ftp.postgresql.org as usual.

Postgres runs on all x86, ppc, and alpha platforms under
Linux.  These are the ones I have personally tried.  Other
architectures probably also work.

There are no special instructions.  Simply download and
install it as usual.
