Hello List,
I tried installing postgreSql 8.4 RC1 on ubuntu 9.04 - jaunty, with the
postgres 8.4 RC1one click installer provided by EnterpriseDB as it says
in the download page on the postgres site.

The instalation goes fine and the DB looks fine, but after the first
reboot, the current theme gets changed into some simple old gnome theme,
and if I try to change it back, it wont change.
Also the sound is broken and I cannot get a wireless conection and maybe
something else I haven't tried.
I've tried this twice on a brand new installation on jaunty, and its the
same.
If I uninstall postgreSQL then after the reboot the system is fine like
before the install.

Is this an ubuntu or a postgres issue?
I'll post this on the some ubuntu list also.

postgres version: 8.4 RC1
OS: ubuntu 9.04 jaunty

Regards

I have compiled --manually-- Postgres 8.4 RC1 on KUbuntu 9.04 without
any problem. Maybe the problem is with the libs that the installer uses...

It is. There's a libuuid.so somewhere it shouldn't be. If you move
/opt/PostgreSQL/8.4/lib/libuuid* to somewhere else (create a backup
directory somewhere), and run ldconfig, everything should return to
normal. You'll probably need to reboot to get the theme back.

I get a fix sorted out.

Thanks for the report!

It seems my colleagues in India are one step ahead of us all :-)

Ok the same thing happened with the 8.3.7 installer after a few hours -
not right away.
I uninstalled the 8.4, and there are no libuuid files in /opt/8.3/lib/.

What shoud I do and how can I be notified when the installers will be
updated?

Thanks

I'm sorry that is /opt/PostgreSQL/8.3/lib/
This is a new 8.3.7 installation with the one click installer with the
same problems with themes etc.

No, uuid-ossp isn't included in the 8.3 installer, so the offending
libraries aren't installed. I've tested 8.3 here on an otherwise clean
install of 9.04, and themes, sound and network all seem to work as
they should. There is no delayed installation of libraries and
ldconfig is run during the installation, so I can't see any reason why
things would suddenly break 'after a few hours'

What shoud I do and how can I be notified when the installers will be
updated?

8.4.0 is due to be released on Monday.
