RPMS on PostgreSQL.org updated.

От

I have updated the RPM distribution on postgresql.org today.

The last two releases, 6.5.3-2 and -3, in both locale and non-locale
versions, are available.  I'm keeping two releases rotating online in
case serious problems are found in the latest release that were not in
the next-to-latest release.

The directory structure for the RPMS has been changed somewhat, with the
RPMs now being under /pub/bindist/RPM, rather than being in /pub/RPM and
/pub/SRPMS, although those two locations have been symlinked into the
appropriate directories under /pub/bindist/RPM so that preexisting links
wouldn't be broken.

Many thanks to Marc and Jeff for making the update possible.

Latest release: postgresql-6.5.3-3 and 6.5.3-3nl.

Please read /pub/bindist/RPM/README and README.rpm for more information.

So should I blow away all of the other RPM directories on the FTP
site??

You can, if you wish.  Jeff gave me the bindist/RPM directory, and
symlinked the RPMS and SRPMS tree of yours into the bindist/RPM/RPMS and
bindist/RPM/SRPMS directories, respectively.  The links on the download
and news pages will have to be changed when you do so -- which is why I
suggested to Jeff that he symlink, so that links wouldn't be broken.

Future download links for the RPMs should point to bindist/RPM, IMO.

I have already found some other annoyances with the RPMs -- on upgrading
the server subpackage, a chkconfig --del is performed -- but a
corresponding chkconfig --add is not performed, thus removing postgresql
from being autostarted.  I think a change in the behavior to leave well
enough alone if upgrading, and do the chkconfig --del only if this is an
uninstall would be appropriate.  I got bit with this on my production
server -- not fun.
