Re: [ADMIN] postgresql 7.4.2 binary for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1

[Donald Fraser]

Yes there are defines which turn off parts of the build and or change dependencies. For example the following sets dependencies for Red Hat 8 (build8x) and turns off python support   rpmbuild --rebuild --define 'build8x 1' --define 'python 0' postgresql-7.4.2-1PGDG.src.rpm I don't know what Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 is equivalent to with regards to desktop versions so can't help you with choosing a correct define. Have a look at the end of the rpm build script for a list of available defines.   Regards Donald Fraser ----- Original Message ----- From: Christopher Smith To: Tom Lane Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2004 3:29 PM Subject: Re: [ADMIN] postgresql 7.4.2 binary for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 I have endeavored to do so however, I get these errors....  Is there a way to change the build script(s) to ignore this tcl library requirement?   error: failed build dependencies:         tcl-devel is needed by postgresql-7.4.2-1PGDG Tom Lane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Christopher Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>writes: > Are there any binaries for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. The OS shipped with Postgresql 7.1.3... I would like to upgrade. Are there any suggestions? Get a more recent SRPM and do "rpmbuild --rebuild".
