updating INSTALL file

Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote:

I think the INSTALL file needs to be updated. Its list of configure
options doesn't seem to mention --enable-thread-safety. I don't know
what else...

That is done by Peter as part of updating HISTORY once we update SGML.

I would rebuild it right now but the cross-links I added to INSTALL to
allow a mention of shared_buffers and sort_mem as part of the tuning
recommendation has broken the INSTALL build:

openjade:/usr/local/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/html/dblink.dsl:203:1:E: XRef LinkEnd to missing ID 'RUNTIME-CONFIG-RESOURCE-MEMORY'
openjade:/usr/local/share/sgml/stylesheets/docbook/html/dblink.dsl:203:1:E: XRef LinkEnd to missing ID 'RUNTIME-CONFIG-RESOURCE'
gmake: *** [INSTALL.html] Error 1
gmake: *** Deleting file `INSTALL.html'
(2) grep
(2) grep -i 'RUNTIME-CONFIG-RESOURCE-MEMORY' *.sgml
backup.sgml: (see <xref linkend="runtime-config-resource-memory">).
installation.sgml: mentioned in <xref linkend="runtime-config-resource-memory">. Other
runtime.sgml: <sect3 id="runtime-config-resource-memory">

Peter? Help.

You need to do it like this:

<para>
<command>pg_dumpall</command> does not
save large objects. Check
<![%standalone-include[the documentation]]>
<![%standalone-ignore[<xref linkend="backup-dump-caveats">]]>
if you need to do this.
</para>

Thanks. INSTALL file updated. Peter will do the final one, but at
least we have a more current one in there now.
