I just released 2nd set of RPMs for 4th Alpha of the upcoming 9.0 release. Changelog is: - Move euc2004_sjis2004.so into server package. This explains why initdb is broken when -contrib is not installed. Fixes #11. - Improve/fix alternatives section initdb problem was a blocker, that's why I released updated packages immediately. Thanks Marc Fournier for bug report, and Tom Lane for the fix. Also, thanks to Konstantin Pelepelin for reporting problems on alternatives issue. These packages don't support upgrading from any of the previous alphas, if you have all packages installed. I did not bother to fix it, since this is just an alpha. A workaround is removing postgresql-contrib package before running yum update. Please note that these packages are **not** production ready. They are built for Fedora 7,8,11,12 and RHEL/CentOS 4,5. Fedora 11 packages are currently on the testing phase, and they will be in the repository in an hour. We need more people to discover any bugs and test new features in 9.0 development version. Here is the list of the new features in 9.0 development version: http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/release-9-0.html As usual, please find detailed info about RPMs from: http://yum.pgrpms.org/howtoyum.php Also, these packages will be distributed over the PostgreSQL FTP network, later in the day: ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v9.0alpha4 A mini howto about 9.0 alpha release + RPMs are here: http://yum.pgrpms.org/news-9.0alpha-packages-ready-for-testing.php Please report any packaging related errors to me. If you find any PostgreSQL 9.0 bugs, please post them to pgsql-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or fill out this form: http://www.postgresql.org/support/submitbug SRPMs are also available.
