attached is a new ebuild for the recently released postgresql 7.3.2 the new release contains a number of recently found memory leak and core dump fixes and is recommended by the PG team (http://www.postgresql.org). this ebuild is just an updated version of the 7.3.1 ebuild found in $PORTAGE/dev-db/postgresql/ which is currently masked. it was tested and works (including the ebuild config portion) on a maintained and current gentoo installation but only one box was available for testing (x86). (apologies if i've missed anything - this is my first ebuild submission) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

What's up? Can anyone put this into portage... ?
I added this ebuild to portage as unstable. Please test.
with this ebuild I can't call config for the firs time install. if I call "ebuild ... config" I get /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 1065: pkg_config: command not found do I need this for first init of postgres? I think so. I can't su into user postgres because he says /var/db/posgresql does not exists.
okay, I today rebuild postgres-7.3.2 and seems the ebuild got fixed
