Bruce Momjian 916cb38431 Here are two patches to fix up the c++ (and c) support in the
configuration system.  The idea is to make the configure arguments
that specify compilers to be compatible with the other --with
options.  The main point, though, is that the c++ support is on by
default, but can easily be disabled by the --without-CXX option
for those few(?) that don't want it.

Marc G. Fournier 8973192283 From: Brook Milligan <brook@trillium.NMSU.Edu>
Here is a pair of patches that (I hope) finish the configuration
issues with tcl/tk and make the recognition of the two packages
completely parallel in organization.  This should make future changes
easier to maintain.

Hope to see this in 6.2.2.

Bruce Momjian 8e8116468b Update for 6.3.2 1998-04-07 21:01:28 +00:00
Bruce Momjian 05102c7551 Here are 3 patches (all relative to the src directory) to help with
the configuration of v6.3.1.  I have replaced the queries for
include/lib directories with --with configuration options.  I have
also included a list of potential tcl/tk include directories directly
in the CPPFLAGS variable.  As new versions are needed, these should
be added to the list in reverse numerical order (libraries are in
a separate list near the end).  This greatly simplifies the later
checks if --with-tcl is set.  I hope this solution works for
everyone.

I also added a check to disable the perl support if postgres was
not already installed (as per the instructions in the directory).
By the way, why must there be an installed pgsql to compile perl
support? This seems odd, at best.

Finally, I changed the Makefile in the libpgtcl interface to place
the shared libraries at the end of the list of files, not at the
beginning.  With NetBSD at least, libraries are linked in order,
so the original sequence does not work.

Marc G. Fournier 8ab1271f09 From: David Friend <dfriend@atlsci.atlsci.com>
Subject: [PATCHES] INSTALL changes

This patch modifies the INSTALL file.  The changes are:
  - SPARC/Linux-ELF was added to the list of supported platforms.
    The special notes for it at the bottom of the file were removed.
  - Changed "database server" to "RDBMS database server".
  - Modified step 6 so that when you restore your database the
    tables will be owned by the original owners instead of the
    postgresql superuser.
  - Modified step 19 on diagnosing the regression tests for the
    SPARC Linux platform with a beta release.
  - Other minor changes.

Subject: [PATCHES] Patch for INSTALL

The following patch makes a number of modifications to file INSTALL.
Among other things, it restores some platform specific notes I deleted.
It also no longer requires a separate compile for the regression tests.

Please note that this patch already incorporates the patch Hal Snyder
submitted on Monday.  Do not apply Hal's patch.

I have created a much more comprehensive version of the
