Hello, I installed postgresql82 & postgresql82-server ports. Following these ports, I wanted to "install php5 +apache2 +postgresql", but the install wants to setup postgresql81. Is there any way I can point the php5 postgresql variant to my postgresql82 port? Ringo Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

The php5 port will need to be changed. I'd be happy to do that if someone will tell me how I should change it. Should we change the php5 port to use postgresql82 instead of postgresql81, or should we provide both options? I don't use PostgreSQL so I don't know.

I eventually looked into which PostgreSQL I use on Linux and it was 8.1 also. I must have overlooked that the 8.2 port files are only committed for a few days. Feel free to update the port file, but for me, the 8.2 is no longer needed. I took 8.1. I wonder if it is possible to have something like the "provides"-"requires" rules that Debian dpkg has. PostgreSQL 8.1 and 8.2 could "provide postgresql8" while php5 could "require postgresql8". Then both PostgreSQL 8.1 and 8.2 would provide the php5 necessity.

This crops up every now and again on the list. IMHO it would be a massive improvement! -- Arnaud

Hi, I fixed that. I'm sorry not having done this earlier, but the decision to make PostgreSQL versions to be distinct ports was made before me making sense due to different formats of the database. ! !
