Having updated packages would be great! Specially if they would be updated
for, e.g., OpenSuSE 10.1 and OpenSuSE 10.2 (both already released) and not
just for OpenSuSE 10.3 (still under "development").

Having packages for some of the older releases makes using both PostgreSQL and
OpenSuSE eaiser (for PostgreSQL it doesn't make much difference since we can
compile things by hand, but would definitely draw more attention to
OpenSuSE... I had a few cases where it had to be handed down because of the
lack of updates -- not security related, of course -- to "older" releases).
