Upgrade to 7.1, change to new layout style. PR: ports/26741 Submitted by: maintainer
2001-04-21 13:34:34 +02:00
======================================================================
* IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE * IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE *
The PostgreSQL port now obeys hier(7) by default, which means that it
installs into:
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/include/pgsql
You *must* move away your old installation from users' and
ldconfig(8)'s PATHs. If you rather install using the old-fashion
layout, cancel now and build the port with "make -DWITH_OLD_LAYOUT".
The pgsql user's home dir is /usr/local/pgsql by default, but can be
changed with for example chpass(1). Datadir defaults to ~pgsql/data,
but can be changed by modifying the ~pgsql/.profile script.
As always, you *must* dump existing databases before stopping and
removing your old postgresql, as part of the update. This is *NOT*
done by this port!
======================================================================
To initialize the database, you should run initdb as the "pgsql" user.
Make the port more "package friendly". Do not call initdb from Makefile's post-install. Users are required to manually run initdb, maybe after configuring their preferred database location in pgsql's user .profile. pkg_add used to simply replace some existing data files. Add pkg-message to tell the user about initdb. Remove 2 empty directories from pkg-plist (pgsql/include/port/freebsd, pgsql/include/port), since they are not included in "make package" anyway and cause pkg_deinstall to complain about the plist. Remove all pgsql/data contents from pkg-plist, so "make deinstall" and pkg_delete won't clobber existing databases. Minor version upgrades can now be performed by means of pkg_delete and "make install", without using pg_dump. Chown %D/pgsql/lib to root:wheel to satisfy ldconfig's recent security requirements. Change @dirrm of pgsql to "@unexec rmdir": pkg_deinstall won't complain if data still exists in that directory at deinstall time. Approved by: maintainer

Example:
su -l pgsql -c initdb
You can then start PostgreSQL by running:
ldconfig PostgreSQL's lib should happen before starting *ANY* ports. This would cure headache like apache module linking against libpq fail to work after rebooting. Originally, maintainer and I want this commit to go with the PostgreSQL updating. But we both think that the latest PostgreSQL would not be released before FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE ports freeze. As a conclusion, PORTREVISION bumped. Discussed with/Submitted by: MAINTAINER
