That tells me you didn't follow the docs at apt.postgresql.org… actually you need to go check the FAQ these days it seems. As 9.3 is not released yet you need to setup your system to fetch its libpq version: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt/FAQ http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt/FAQ#I_want_to_try_the_beta_version_of_the_next_PostgreSQL_release deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ squeeze-pgdg main 9.3 So you just add 9.3 to your existing source line and try again. We might need to add instructions on how to do that on the main debian page at http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/debian/.

Ack. > We might need to add instructions on how to do that on the main debian > page at http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/debian/. For the 9.3.0 release, libpq5 and friends will be moved into the "main" component, so the problem doesn't exist for the end user. (We might need to add a bigger hint for the 9.3rc users, though, but the FAQ should be clear.) Christoph -- cb@df7cb.de | http://www.df7cb.de/

Guys, Apologies for ping. Andres contacted me; apparently your replies got spam-trapped. > That tells me you didn't follow the docs at apt.postgresql.org… actually > you need to go check the FAQ these days it seems.

We should put a link on the downloads page if this is required for beta-testing. We can't reasonably expect users to find the FAQ on their own. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com
