Which Linux? Which package/installer? It mostly ships with the -contrib package. Full list of Ubuntu packages is available at packages.ubuntu.com. Postgres 9.1 (default) and 8.4 are in the repository. The Ubuntu Software Center hides stuff from you. If you search for postgres, you won't find it unless you click a not-very-obvious "Show [x] technical items" link at the bottom of the window. I would recommend using apt (command line) or Synaptic (graphical) instead of Software Center. sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib should get you started. --Lee -- Lee Hachadoorian PhD, Earth & Environmental Sciences (Geography) Research Associate, CUNY Center for Urban Research http://freecity.commons.gc.cuny.edu
