Thread: Pokey Fedora Updates for Postgresql?
I guess I am feeling a bit cranky today :(… Seems like Postgresql 9.1.2 has been out for a while but it has not appeared in the updates for Fedora 16. Today I cruised koji.fedoraproject.org and noticed that a set of rpms appear to been built by , ummm, 'tgl' back in early January. Does anyone know how to kickstart the process of getting the latest version pushed out to the repos? Thanks, Jerry ( Yes I know about Devrim's repository..)

Sorry, they do not appear in *my* 'yum update' or yumex or the software update program. I have been getting regular updates for many packages. ( I check daily ). I have the 9.1.1 rpms installed… [jerry@bigbox ~]$ rpm -qa | grep postgres postgresql-contrib-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-plpython-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-devel-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-server-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-pltcl-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-upgrade-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-docs-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-libs-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 postgresql-9.1.1-1.fc16.i686 [jerry@bigbox ~]$ yum check-update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile updates/metalink | 16 kB 00:00 * fedora: mirror.vcu.edu * rpmfusion-free: mirror.liberty.edu * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror.liberty.edu * rpmfusion-nonfree: mirror.liberty.edu * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: mirror.liberty.edu * updates: mirror.vcu.edu Dropbox | 951 B 00:00 adobe-linux-i386 | 951 B 00:00 adobe-linux-i386/primary | 11 kB 00:00 adobe-linux-i386 17/17 rpmfusion-free-updates | 3.3 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-nonfree-updates | 3.3 kB 00:00 updates | 4.5 kB 00:00 updates/primary_db | 3.9 MB 00:19 [jerry@bigbox ~]$ I guess there is a problem on my end, tain't clear to me what the problem could be… I must be holding it wrong...

Huh. Something broken on your end, but what? The only thing that looks
funny to me in your output is
> [jerry@bigbox ~]$ yum check-update

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That's not a standard plugin (leastwise I don't see it when I run yum)
so I'm wondering if it's pointing you to a dysfunctional mirror. Try
disabling it.
FWIW, as of today I see this on my F16 machine:
[tgl@rh3 ~]$ sudo yum check-update
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
updates/metalink | 16 kB 00:00
updates | 4.5 kB 00:00
updates/primary_db | 5.0 MB 00:02
updates/group_gz | 431 kB 00:00
updates-debuginfo/metalink | 13 kB 00:00
updates-debuginfo | 3.1 kB 00:00
updates-debuginfo/primary_db | 391 kB 00:00
The fact that your "updates/primary_db" is smaller than mine seems
pretty suspicious. I wonder whether you've been seeing any Fedora
updates at all lately? Maybe everything you've updated has been coming
from those non-Fedora repos.

In fedora 15 I had been using Devrim's repo and had 'excluded' postgresql in the fedora and fedora update repositories. When fedora 16 came out I removed the exclusion from the fedora repo but NOT the update repo. (and I disabled the pgdg repo). Sorry for all the noise… Jerry
