Unfortunately, that's going to involve a bit of pain, Yes, I'm not sure I see the point of it. It's got a bad name, but changing it is just putting lipstick on a pig. End users don't know, and don't care, about contrib. Sysadmins and casual DBAs only care what they can "yum install". That only leaves packagers and hard-core developers, both of whom already know how contrib works. Not that I wouldn't want to see some of the good ideas raised in this thread explored. In particular, I'd love to see some of the more standard contrib things installable as simple as: postgres=# INSTALL earthdistance; Right now contrib is a real catch-all of various things; it would be nice to categorize them somehow. And by categorize, I emphatically do NOT mean move to pgfoundry, which is pretty much a kiss of death. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200804030953 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREDAAYFAkf04VUACgkQvJuQZxSWSsjmPACeMoaDTXgjqXBKlthPad6D3sWV qooAn2y0cwnafYwnGonGBEq/6IAbXzlF =SO7r -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
