Ah, I should have mentioned: I found a missing file in the 6.5.3-1
RPMs I was repackaging (and using!) for Mandrake. libpq++.H isn't
copied to /usr/include/pgsql/ due to the bizarre cap H in the file
name.
Vince, is there any real reason to keep this "cap H" convention? It is
the only file in the whole distro which has this, and it causes
problems for packagers and perhaps for Makefiles and emacs-like
editors.

Actually it wasn't even up to date at the time.

OK, I'll kill it for 7.0.

No, I just added "*.H" to the "for f in *.h access ..." line. I may
not have actually tested to see if that works :/
Also, I switched from mkdir -p to using
install -d -m 0700 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/var/lib/pgsql
and
%attr(700,postgres,postgres) %dir /var/lib/pgsql
Nothing else changed (I'm looking at 6.5.3-1 spec files).

The first one will go in 6.5.3-3, along with anything else I find. -- Lamar Owen WGCR Internet Radio 1 Peter 4:11
