Is there anyone willing to bump PostgreSQL to 8.4.2? It is a security update that we should probably look at sooner rather than later, and right now almost all of the postgres packages in the repos are listed as orphans (did Hugo disappear? I think he did them before). See here (http://www.postgresql.org/about/news.1170) for the release notes. Of course, when I say bump, I also mean give it some sort of sanity check post-build to make sure it built and runs fine. :) -Dan

Douglas was the previous maintainer and he has left so these are real orphans at the moment. Should be a simple bump. Allan

Whoops, that makes a lot more sense then. s/Hugo/Douglas/. Are there no existing developers that use PG in a production-like setup? I use it on my Slice but I would hardly call that mission-critical. -Dan

Done for i686, and tested both locally and in production. If someone builds for x86_64, I will test tomorrow. - P
