Thread: Anyone know where I can get an 8.2.3 binary for ubuntu?
Subject says it all. Doing a source compile under Debian or Debian-like condition is not an option for the end user. They need an apt-get (the ubuntu equivalent to rpm AFAICT) version. Unfortunately, the latest I can find is 8.1.8 Where's 8.2.3? Help? Ron

I believe that 8.2.3 is at the repositories for edgy and feisty. Or download the .debs from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-8.2 Regards MP

They need an apt- get (the ubuntu equivalent to rpm AFAICT) version. Ubuntu has 8.2.3 in the upcoming Feisty distribution; in the meantime, you can install it on Edgy from the edgy-backports tree: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin//search_packages.pl? version=all&subword=1&exact=&arch=any&releases=all&case=insensitive&keyw ords=postgresql-8.2&searchon=names This requires adding a source line to /etc/apt/sources.list that references this repository. This should suffice: deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe (You might want to substitute your country code for "gb" in the URLs.)

Hardly. I have more than my fair share of customers that:
1. Develop on windows (in php)
2. Only use winscp
3. Couldn't configure, install or load linux or postgresql if they had a
gun to their head.
Better yet, these "users" are very profitable in their respective fields
and are actually half way decent php programmers (snickers aside).
You will also find that in many environments, especially enterprise
environments a pervasive string of Java developers who known "nothing"
of the database except for what Hibernate tells them.
I quote, "You mean there is tuning that has to be done beyond java?"

Are you sure? -- It should be:

I recently installed kubuntu and postgres 8.2.3 is available in apt-get
(edgy backports I think).
