Thread: RHEL 2.1 rpms for 7.4.2
Hi People,
Does anybody know where I can find Redhat Enterprise Linux 2.1 versions of the latest Postgresql release?
I've had a look at http://opensource.nederland.net/ but they're only 7.4.1, which is the current version I'm running.
Thanks

Your best bet might be to get the SRPM (source RPM) and build binaries
for yourself. The SRPM ought to work fine on older Linuxen, and
building isn't much harder than "rpmbuild --rebuild".

I just did this on a FC2 system, well not the latest, but 7.4.2 anyway. In addition I built the latest PHP as well as Apache from sources. Only trick I used was to grab the startup scrips from the older versions and modify them for use with the latest versions. Very easy. -- Scot L.

Agreed, But people who buy RHAS2.1 in my experience are quite adamant about using RHAS2.1 packages. You can get it to build but you have to go in and manually remove some lines from the spec file.

There is almost zero difference from a PostgreSQL perspective between 7.3 and AS/ES 2.1. Sincerely, Joshua D.
