libpq.so.4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have the same issue as this poster with libpq.so.4:

In short, I've upgraded to 8.3.1 from 8.1 on RHEL 4 (with some CentOS packages). I have apps with dependencies of libpq.so.4 but this is no longer available. 8.3.1 provides libpq.so.5 and the compat-libs provide libpq.so.3.

At the moment maintaining package management integrity is not a must - getting back to 100% package-controlled files can wait until the machine is replaced. Upgrading the dependent software is not an option.
With that in mind, any suggestions on options?

What I've thought of trying so far is
1) creating a symlink called libpq.so.4 towards libpq.so.5 - slightly dangerous due to possible API changes?
2) extracting a copy of libpq.so.4 from the previous RPM release of postgres and manually uploading it
3) building a custom compat package - I don't know how to do this though.

but I'm unaware of the pros and cons of these.

Any comments appreciated.

Regards
Oliver
