postgresql-7.0.2: install-sh cannot install pgaccess
I downloaded the source files postgresql-7.0.2.tar.gz at Jul 12, 2000.
Trying to install pgaccess, it did not correctly copy all files to the
target directories.
Reason: postgresql-7.0.2/src/bin/pgaccess/Makefile tries to install
multiple
files with one install command:
$(INSTALL) $(INSTLOPTS) lib/*.tcl $(POSTGRESDIR)/pgaccess/lib
...
But the install script postgresql-7.0.2/src/install-sh can only install
*one* file at a time:
# This script is compatible with the BSD install script, but was
written
# from scratch. It can only install one file at a time, a
restriction
# shared with many OS's install
programs.
In the case of multiple files, the shell expands the *.tcl, so the
install
script installs the *first* file only into the target directory.
