I believe (but won't be able to prove for another few hours) that the reason the MSVC buildfarm members are failing on contrib/unaccent, as seen here: http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=mastodon&dt=2009-08-18%2013:00:00 is that they are not running the test in a UTF8-encoded database. And the reason for *that* is that the MSVC build infrastructure pays no attention to REGRESS_OPTS. Instead it's got hardwired values for all the pg_regress command line options, and of course it needs to hardwire several different sets of values for different tests :-(. I think it's time to fix that properly by making the perl scripts dredge REGRESS_OPTS out of the makefiles. My perl-fu is not up to the task, however. Anybody want to do it? This seems like a stop-ship issue for 8.5alpha1, even though it's only a contrib regression test that's certain to fail; so I think it's a bit urgent.
I will take a look. cheers andrew -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
