Update to DocBook 4.5
Hackorum builds and tests every patch posted to the lists, not only commitfest submissions. This is Hackorum's own CI rather than the PostgreSQL project's, and it is still under testing - please report anything that looks wrong.
You can run a PostgreSQL built from this patch straight from Docker, with no checkout and no build:
docker run --rm -p 5432:5432 ghcr.io/hackorum-dev/postgres-patch:t41031psql -h localhost -U postgresBuilt from patchset v1 (message #1), July 28, 2026 at 03:54 AM.
Every patchset is also pushed to a branch of our PostgreSQL fork, so you can check out the same tree CI built. Without a PostgreSQL checkout:
git clone --branch t41031_1 https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.gitIn a checkout you already have, add the fork once:
git remote add hackorum https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.gitthen, for this patchset and every later one:
git fetch hackorum t41031_1 && git checkout t41031_1Patchset v1 (message #1) is on t41031_1
I propose to apply the attached patch (to master) to update the DocBook
version to 4.5 (from 4.2). This basically just gets us off some random
intermediate minor version to the latest within that major version.
Most packagings put all 4.* versions into one package, so you probably
don't need to change anything in your tools. The exception is MacPorts,
as seen in the patch. (DocBook 4.5 was released in 2006, so it should
be available everywhere.)
