FreeBSD currently has a port (in the ports collection) of v7.0.0. There has not been a port of v7.0.1. I am trying to edit the v7.0.0 port so that it will install v7.0.2. My assumptions, listed above, lead me to beleive that this should be fairly easy to do. I am not the port maintainer (he is busy until the end of the month, as described in my previous post), and I have not previously created or customized a port, so I am trying to get more info from people, like yourself, who are more knowledgeable about ports or Postgresql. The crucial question at this point seems to be: has there been any change in the number and names of postgresql files from v7.0.0 to v7.0.2? v7.0.1 is inconsequential since I am editing/customizing a port that works for v7.0.0. (After I have installed 7.0.2, I will send a diff and comments to the port maintainer to help him when he updates the port.) John P.S. My mail to pgsql-general@postgresql.org doesn't seem to be getting through. Would you have any idea why this is so? ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
