Finally got a hold of the RC1 version, and just updated my port to use it instead of now vanished beta3. This update also includes the switch to PORTNAME/PORTVERSION. The updated version can be found at: http://home.astralblue.com/~ab/postgresql7-rc1.tar.gz. On the overall, the following points have changed since 6.5.x: * New boolean knobs added: USE_ODBC, USE_PERL, USE_MULTIBYTE. However, USE_PERL is apparently disabled in RC1 (used to be functional in beta3) so the port has the corresponding PLIST fragment disabled in Makefile as well. This will be put back once it's fixed in a later release. * The version of Tcl/Tk library can be now set using TCLTK_VER variable. It understands one of following three values: 8.0, 8.1 or 8.2. * PLIST is now generated in a much more flexible way; the port now honors various options like USE_xxxx and NOPORTDOCS and reflects them in PLIST (so we don't get a bunch of bogus ``pkg_delete: file xx/yy/zz/ww doesn't really exist'' errors). The big PLIST has been split into fragments in order to facilitate this. * The port can now be packaged; the UID/GID creation and database initialization is done in the INSTALL script. NO_PACKAGE knob is still there however, this may be removed once the port is tested enough. * pgaccess has been resurrected. Yay!
