Need packaging help for RPMs.

Sander Steffann, who has done so well with previous RPM releases, is going to
be unable to help with this twin release of 7.3.6 and 7.4.2. So I am asking
for help. Replies to the PORTs list (HACKERS has been blind-copied on the
initial request, but the discussion belongs in PORTs).

I need people who can build on:
Red Hat Linux 6.2
Red Hat Linux 7.3
Red Hat Linux 8.0
Red Hat Linux 9 (although the RHEL3-compatible pakages I build should install
OK on an RHL9 system)
Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1

I have and can build on Fedora Core 1 and WhiteBox Enterprise Linux 3 (RHEL3
compatible) and Aurora SPARCLinux 1.0 (Red Hat 7.3 for SPARC, which is how I
test the 7.3 rebuild capability).

You need to already be capable of rebuilding RPMs for source RPM; I want
someone experienced in the process to do this. You should also be conversant
enough with spec files to know how to find the conditional build defines I
use for the different distribution versions.

Source RPMs for 7.3.6 and 7.4.2 are already on the ftp.postgresql.org server;
as I am looking for someone experienced, you should be able to find them
yourself. :-) Those who are interested reply in the PORTs list and we'll go
from there.
