Time for RC1 soon?

We are putting out beta3 today or tomorrow. It seems we are ready to
start considering an RC1 date, perhaps next Friday, November 1?

Seems like someone ought to issue a call for port reports. The
"supported platforms" list hasn't been touched ...

Good point. Thomas, can you take that on?

No, at least not now. I'm not able to communicate reliably with the
mailing lists, and so can not coordinate anything :( Not sure when or if
that will be resolved, but I'll be out of town next week so...

through the same mailer but with different results...

Yes, I have noticed this happening at random times.

OK, Tom will be away next week, and Thomas will too. I can do it.
Folks. start sending in those plaform reports, OS name and version
number please.

I've checked CVS tip on:
HPUX 10.20, using both gcc and vendor's cc
PPC Linux
Mac OS X 10.1

I get the following on Linux/Sparc, Debian 3.0:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/doug/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs/ascii_and_mic'
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fpic

make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/doug/src/pgsql/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2

My gcc version:

doug@varsoon:~/src/pgsql$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-linux/2.95.4/specs
gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)

This is CVS tip as of about 11:30 EST Saturday.

Looking into it, we have in ascii_and_mic.c:

PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(ascii_to_mic)
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(mic_to_ascii)

Putting a semicolon after each such line fixes that compile, but there
are other files under conversion_procs with the same problem. Is my
gcc not expanding the macro properly?

That should be fixed as of now.

OK, compile went fine, but I get multiple regression test failures:

test geometry ... FAILED
select_views ... FAILED
foreign_key ... FAILED
limit ... FAILED
plpgsql ... FAILED
copy2 ... FAILED
temp ... FAILED
domain ... FAILED
rangefuncs ... FAILED
prepare ... FAILED
without_oid ... FAILED
conversion ... FAILED
truncate ... FAILED
alter_table ... FAILED

I have attached a gzipped copy of "regression.diffs". Let me know if
I can supply any other help.

The geometry one looked like rounding issues.

Did you run out of space on where the data directory was mounted?
At least some of the other errors were complaining about no space
left on device.

After realizing that my disk had filled up (thanks Alvaro) I reran the
tests and 'geometry' is the only failure. I'm guessing this is due to
floating-point differences? If this is OK, then

Linux/Sparc (Debian 3.0)

is a PASS.
