No more RH7.3 RPMs?

By Red Hat, but not necessarily by us.

Postgres 7.3.3 RPMs for RH7.3?

Yes. Please understand that I only have at my disposal machines running Red
Hat 9 (my personal notebook), Red Hat 8.0 (a couple of servers I admin), and
Aurora 1.0 (0.42) (my personal SPARC servers). I do not have a RH7.3 box, so
I can't directly support RH 7.3.

Please also understand that I am not being paid by anyone at this time to do
RPM releases -- it is a completely volunteer operation.

That being said, I have volunteers who build RPMs for the older distributions.
RH 7.3 RPMs should be available today, with RH 6.2 RPMs possibly also
available today.

Also please note that Red Hat doesn't support PostgreSQL 7.3.3 on Red Hat
Linux 7.3. RHL 7.3 shipped with a different version of PostgreSQL, which is
the only version that they will support on Red Hat Linux, unless Red Hat
releases an errata through RHN for PostgreSQL.

While I and Red Hat closely track on the contents of the RPMs, the RPMs
labeled with 'PGDG' are not in any way being made available by Red Hat
Software. They are being made available by the PostgreSQL Global Development
Group.

I have a few spare boxes, would you like a sort of crappy system (533
Celeron, 15G HD) on which to compile and build?

Yes. Please understand that I only have at my disposal machines running

Red

Hat 9 (my personal notebook), Red Hat 8.0 (a couple of servers I admin),

and

Aurora 1.0 (0.42) (my personal SPARC servers). I do not have a RH7.3 box,

so

I can't directly support RH 7.3.

That would be me :) Sorry I was a little slow with providing RH73 packages!

RH 7.3 RPMs should be available today, with RH 6.2 RPMs possibly also
available today.

Someone else has already built RPMs for RH73 and Lamar has already uploaded
them to ftp.postgresql.org. I just completed the RH62 packages. Lamar will
put them on the FTP server, but until then they can be picked up from
http://www.steffann.nl/PostgreSQL/v7.3.3/ if somebody needs them quickly.

Bye!
Sander.

This message on the admin list has directions for recompiling the 7.3.3
SRPM on red hat 7.2
