Hi PostgreSQL developers!
The current Debian package has some patches that tweak the building of
contrib modules. I think they would be interesting for other
distributions, too. Most of this stuff was contributed by users who
actually use these modules.
25contrib-dbmirror:=20
- additionally install some useful scripts and data files
25contrib-enablemysql:
- enable mysql module build
- add Makefile
- fix hashbang of mysql2pgsql
25contrib-enableoracle:
- enable oracle module build
- add Makefile
- patch ora2pg.pl to look for Ora2Pg.pm additionally in the path
where ora2pg.pl is installed
25contrib-enablexml:
- enable xml module build
- Makefile: add CFLAGS for "-I/usr/include/libxml2" to allow building
26dbf2pg-errorcheck:
- add better error checking to dbf2pg
27dbf2pg-textfield:
- add dbf2pg support for the dbase field 'M' which corresponds to
PostgreSQL's TEXT field
Do you consider adopting them in the official version?
Thanks a lot and have a nice day!
Martin
