Folks, I'm VERY interested in the XML tools found in the contrib sections of pg (esp 8.1beta), and would like to add this feature into the currently supported pg 8.0.3 engine on my ia32 SuSE9.3Pro boxes in the cleanest possible way. Currently, the various postgresql packages in SuSE 9.3 do not seem to contain the XML code, as indicated by the following shell snippet: (for a in "" "-server" "-contrib" do rpm -ql postgresql${a} done) |grep -i xml I'd be very interested if someone has created a source rpm for the XML stuff (and any requirements not supplied on SuSE 9.3 Pro DVD) tia -- David T.
