Description David Butler 2010-12-17 04:15:46 UTC

Should have a use flag for it or separate ebuild...

Reproducible: Always




To obtain (the release doesn't work with recent postgres:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.pgfoundry.org:/cvsroot/edb-debugger login
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.pgfoundry.org:/cvsroot/edb-debugger checkout server

To install:

sudo ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server/postgresql-server-8.4.5.ebuild prepare
sudo mkdir /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server-8.4.5/work/postgresql-8.4.5/contrib/pldebugger/
sudo mv server/* /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server-8.4.5/work/postgresql-8.4.5/contrib/pldebugger/
sudo ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server/postgresql-server-8.4.5.ebuild compile
sudo make -C /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server-8.4.5/work/postgresql-8.4.5/contrib/pldebugger
sudo make install -C /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server-8.4.5/work/postgresql-8.4.5/contrib/pldebugger
sudo ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql-server/postgresql-server-8.4.5.ebuild merge

edb-debugger should certainly be its own ebuild. I'd be willing to add a debug USE flag to the dev-db/postgresql-server ebuilds, though.

Created attachment 277731 [details]
postgresql-server-9.0.3.ebuild

Attached an ebuild that implements an edb-debugger USE flag

I am not a fan of the implementation.

Can it be done in a separate ebuild at all?

Comment 4 David Butler 2011-06-24 22:25:04 UTC

It uses the postgres sources to build the plugin. so, it may even be conceivable that one would have to re-emerge the plugin every time postgres is updated...

Upstream dead.
