Re: MD5 checksum or RPM for PostgreSQL 8.7.3

To Whom It My Concern,

I am a member of a small group using PostgreSQL has a data backend and
I writing to request and MD5 checksum for PostgreSQL 8.7.3.
If an MD5 is not available, I would appreciate the location of an RPM
for 8.7.3, if there is one available.
Thank you very much for your assistance in this matter.

presumably, you mean postgres 8.3.7, as there is no 8.7.anything yet,
8.4 is still in beta.

http://yums.postgresql.org has RPMs for many platforms. you didn't
specify which.

Hello Mr. Pierce,

You are correct it is for version 8.3.7. for Redhat. My apologies for
the mix-up.
A member of the group has checked http://yums.postgresql.org and was
unable to locate an RPM for Redhat.
If there is one available, I would be most appreciative if you provided
the link.
Thank you again for your assistance in this matter.

The correct site is: http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/

"Redhat" describes a dozen versions of Linux and a half dozen or more
platforms. The yum postgres project has RPMs for RHEL 4.x and 5.x, on
X86 and x86_64.

Sorry for the confusion and ambiguity of the request. The files we are
requesting the MD5 checksum for are located here:
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.3.7/linux/rpms/redhat/rhel-4-i386/

Um, there's no such thing as PostgreSQL 8.7.3. The latest stable
version is *8.3.7*. Was that the version you meant?

If that's the case, then everything you want is here:

http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v8.3.7/

I'm not that much willing to push MD5's anymore, since all RPMs are
*signed* and one can check integrity with those signatures.

Anyway, I added md5sums, which will appear in main FTP site in a few
hours.
