Hello,

We would like to deploy a modified version of PostgreSQL on our servers.
It would be easier if we could build our own apt package for Ubuntu 14.04.

We've found this project :
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgapt.git;a=summary
Is it the right tool? How to use it (without jenkins if possible)?
Is there a better solution?

Thank you,

*David Grelaud*

I work mostly on RPM based linux (but also Solaris, BSD, AIX), and
frankly, if I need to deploy my own postgres build, I build it to run in
/opt/project/pgsql/9.4/...... and package it as a simple tarball.
