Обсуждение: Upcoming 6.4 release issues
We plan to release PostgreSQL, version 6.4, within the next week. An announcement will be made as soon as it is ready. You can see the changes for this release on our web site at the bottom of the TODO list. We hope people will be able to upgrade within two weeks after its release, so we fix any problems and move on to the 6.5 release. 6.4 includes a pg_upgrade utility, that will allow upgrading without a dump/reload for 6.3.* users. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

don't plan on getting one for it any time in the near future.
I tried a beta yesterday, and it compiled on 0/2 of the machines I
tried (NetBSD and IRIX). I'm really hoping this new version might fix
some of the instability issues I had with 6.3.2 in production.

This does not require C++ to compile, nor do I suspect it ever
will...I couldn't imagine the effort to go through to actually convert it
over to C++ :)

Please report any compile errors to pgsql-hackers ... it has been
tested on NetBSD, but I don't believe Irix has been tested...

This is what I get when I try to configure on IRIX:

configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler

If'n I take that out of configure.in, I get a lot further. The
problem, though, is that it's treating the lack of a C++ compiler as a
fatal condition. I just took out the check and set HAVE_Cplusplus=false
and got to src/pl/plpgsql/src/ which needed -I. and I got it built.

I don't remember what my NetBSD problem was yet, but I'll try to
play with it later.
