Since people suddenly seem to be suffering from bandwidth concerns I have
devised a new distribution split to address this issue. I propose the
following four sub-tarballs:
* postgresql-XXX.base.tar.gz 3.3 MB
Everything not in one of the ones below.
* postgresql-XXX.opt.tar.gz 1.7 MB
Everything not needed unless you use one of the following configure
options: --with-CXX --with-tcl --with-perl --with-python --with-java
--enable-multibyte --enable-odbc, plus some other not-really-needed
things.
The exact directory list is
src/bin/: pgaccess pgtclsh pg_encoding
src/interfaces: odbc libpq++ libpgtcl perl5 python jdbc
src/pl/: plperl tcl
src/backend/utils/mb contrib/retep src/tools build.xml
* postgresql-XXX.docs.tar.gz 1.9 MB
doc/postgres.tar.gz doc/src doc/TODO.detail doc/internals.ps
(Note man pages are in .base.)
* postgresql-XXX.test.tar.gz 1.0 MB
src/test
All this is proportionally about the same as right now, except that each
tarball except base would now be truly optional. So someone that only
wants to use, say, PHP and psql only needs to download the base package.
Patch below. Yes/no/maybe?
