Re : Postgres 8.2 binary for ubuntu 6.10?

Hi,

I am not moving from 6.10 to anything else for now.
Ubuntu 6.10 LTS is Long Term Support. So for a server that's what I want: everyhting working better and better (via updates) and no major changes ! Getting always the latest version is definitely asking for troubles.
I don't need the latest version of all the desktop apps and libraries. But it's true that it would be nice to be able to get the latest version of PG.

For pgAdmin, we had to compile it our-self.

Hannes recommendation (in another post) of using rpmseek.com (I did not know that one either) seems good.

Cheers,
L(at)u

Objet : [GENERAL] Postgres 8.2 binary for ubuntu 6.10?

I have postgres 8.1 installed on ubuntu 6.10 via synapic package manager. I
would like to install 8.2, but it's not offered in the list. I think 8.2 is
offered on 7.x ubuntu, and I wonder if 8.2 will be offered on 6.10? Probably
the recommondation will be to compile 8.2 on 6.10, but I've only used binary
installations on linux and am not eager to open up another can of worms.

In a way I would like to move to the later ubuntu distro. But I'm concerned
that since my eventual deploy may be on something fairly barebones like
centos, it might be good to stay with the somewhat less polished version of
ubuntu...not sure if there is any value in this approach, but it's hard to
make good choices when one has so little exposure to what the various
options mean.
