Thread: [Postgres-xc-general] Postgres-xc RPM

Hi,

Is an RPM available for this software?
Or, is the only to generate it is by building from the source ourselves?

Thanks,

I am working on it, but I am a bit busy this week -- so it may appear
next week or so.

 A couple of years ago, Devrim volunteered to be the official RPM-builder
of XC.

Thanks for the reply!
I'm asked here to use only RPM and not build from source for our deployment.

So, I have a few questions:

- Is 'XC' a plug-in/add-on? What I'm trying to know is if I can start using
the regular Postgres RPM now until an 'XC' RPM is available, at which point
I will install it.

If this is not the case (i.e., XC is baked right into the PG server code),
what are my options with regard to an RPM ?

Thanks again!

No, XC code is based on PostgreSQL code. It doesn't have libraries that can
be plugged on top of postgres.

Wait that Devrim does it. or build it yourself.
I stored the pact RPM files that Devrim used here:
http://postgres-xc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=postgres-xc/pgxcrpm;a=summary
However, with the time code team members can spend on XC, we are
exclusively working on the dev of core features and bug fix, while letting
packagers build RPM or debian stuff for the project.
