2006-09-05Remove contrib modules that have been migrated to pgfoundry: adddepend,Tom Lane
dbase, dbmirror, fulltextindex, mac, userlock; or abandoned: mSQL-interface, tips.
2005-09-27PGXS should be set with := not =, as specified in the documentation,Tom Lane
to avoid useless multiple executions of pg_config.

2001-09-06To fix the perpetually broken makefiles in the contrib tree, I havePeter Eisentraut
written a generic framework of rules that the contrib makefiles can use instead of writing their own each time. You only need to set a few variables and off you go.
2000-07-09Another round of those unportable config/build changes :-/Peter Eisentraut
* Add option to build with OpenSSL out of the box. Fix thusly exposed bit rot. Although it compiles now, getting this to do something useful is left as an exercise. * Fix Kerberos options to defer checking for required libraries until all the other libraries are checked for. * Change default odbcinst.ini and krb5.srvtab path to PREFIX/etc. * Install work around for Autoconf's install-sh relative path anomaly. Get rid of old INSTL_*_OPTS variables, now that we don't need them anymore. * Use `gunzip -c' instead of g?zcat. Reportedly broke on AIX. * Look for only one of readline.h or readline/readline.h, not both. * Make check for PS_STRINGS cacheable. Don't test for the header files separately. * Disable fcntl(F_SETLK) test on Linux. * Substitute the standard GCC warnings set into CFLAGS in configure, don't add it on in Makefile.global. * Sweep through contrib tree to teach makefiles standard semantics. ... and in completely unrelated news: * Make postmaster.opts arbitrary options-aware. I still think we need to save the environment as well.
