Thread: Re: Installation trouble - Solved
Dear Steve,
I have had the same problem related SuSE 8.2. A thing that additionally can be wrong is the LC_CTYPE setting in the
environment.Running a SuSE system this can be set in /etc/sysconfig/language. I am using RC_LANG="de_DE.UTF-8", but
othervalid values should be fine, too.
For SuSE 8.2 I am currently using the source rpm files from
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/postgresql/postgresql-8.1.1/postgresql-8.1.1-1.src.rpmand the appended patches for the
specfiles to build the rpms.
Best regards,
Johannes Weberhofer

PGDG RPM Building Project only aims to build RPMs for Red Hat and Fedora Core. This has been so before, and personally *I* intend to continue with the same policy. Also, Reinhard Max is building official up2date SuSE packages. One may state that Tom Lane is building RPMs for Fedora Core / Red Hat, however RHEL policy does not allow users by upgrading to latest versions via up2date; so I know that those people (including me :-) ) use the community RPM versions to keep up with the latest version. So, as Bruce stated, the patch (does not fit into our spec and) should be redirected to SuSE.

I specifically recall that this was once exactly not the policy, but of course you are free to do what you want. (In my mind it certainly makes technical sense to produce operating system specific packages.) But I have two requests to clarify this situation: 1. Adjust the description of the pgfoundry project pgsqlrpms to something like "This project aims to build PostgreSQL RPMS for Red Hat and Fedora and maintain them." 2. When you put them on the FTP server, put them in a subdirectory "redhat" (instead of or below "linux") to avoid that users fall into the trap redhat == linux == rpm. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/
