Обсуждение: [HACKERS] Compilation flags

I have recently downloaded 6.1 "official" version an compiled it.
Everything was fine, pg works great. Some questions :

1.
I saw that it is possible to modify the linux-elf template and set -m486
compilation flag in order to get a 486-optimised program.
Are there any compilation flags for gcc (am is using 2.7.2.1 version)
for Pentium or Pentium Pro processors ?

2.
My 6.0 version of pg was from a redhat rpm package. Working with psql
and using "arrow up" key, I was able to get into the editing the last
psql command. This last version (6.1) doesn't. I am doing something
wrong somewhere ?

Example:
template1=> select * from pers;
             cod|nume  |salariu
- ----------------+------+-------
10              |Vasile|  45300
20              |Ion   | 192300
(4 rows)

template1=> ^[[A

3.
A rpm (RedHat package) is very simple to handle. Should the guys from
RedHat get on their ftp site a new pg 6.1 rpm soon ? I would suggest a
postgreSQL-6.1-486.rpm (486 optimised) (more people have 486 or better
computers). Let the 386 owners build their own binaries.

Please reply me directly ( teo@flex.ro ) or on the questions mailing
list.

    Sounds like the readline library either isn't installed on your
system, or wasn't detected by configure...
