Hello,
We are working with PostGreSQL since november 2005, and ours questions
are automatically those of novice persons, that's why your answer
suprises us.
The aim of our question about the "contrib" rpm was to understand why
this package exists, what it is used for, and how generate it. We know
that we are building our own rpm, but by doing this, we also test
PostGreSQL on an IA64 platform...
Sure. The contrib rpm contains everything in the contrib directory.
Look in there if you want to see what it is. They have README files.
The reason nobody can help you here is because not a lot of people here
know anything about rpms at all and thus don't know how to answer your
question. If you compile the stuff in contrib and include it in your
main package, fine. It's just seperated out because not everybody needs
it. It's not part of the core postgresql.
Have a nice day,
Thank you for your answer.
We will try to generate a "contrib" rpm from the contrib directory on an
IA64 platform with the Intel compiler icc.
