Gee, I wonder why?
I'll point out that SCO laid off all of its packagers three or four
years ago. So nobody is packaging PostgreSQL for Unixware anymore. In
general, I think we can reasonably expect that anyone still using
Unixware isn't upgrading PostgreSQL, so if there's any effort at all in
maintaining the port, we should dump it. The only reason we *have* the
port in the first place is that SCO created it and used to maintain it.
Oh, and +1 to dumping all of those other ports (IRIX, Tru64, Alpha),
especially Alpha which I've been told is a maintenance issue.
If we're concerned that there are users out there, the answer is to do
some blogging and see if anyone speaks up. I'll post something.
