Bug 517116 – net-analyzer/jffnms - jffnms-0.9.4fix.pgsql

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description James Horton 2014-07-14 16:53:12 UTC]

List a patch for Jffnms to fix some postgres issues:

 jffnms-0.9.4fix.pgsql 	2014-04-19 	140.0 kB 	


Since the changelog for net-analyzer/jffnms was last updated on
12apr2014, I assume this patch for postgres has not been applied.

Please apply the postgres patch to jffnms.

That is not a patch. It's a PostgreSQL script. What issues does it fix?

[Comment 2 James Horton 2014-07-14 17:58:40 UTC]

From the main developer (18apr2014):

"For quite some time the postgresql dumps in JFFNMS have been rather
sad. This is mainly around the problems of the converters I have used
from moving from mysql to pgsql.

I looked into this again and found something that looks way better than
what I have seen before. The program is py-mysql2pgsql.
I have made a test conversion and was pretty happy with the results. It
even does autoincrements/sequences right. "


If you like, we can wait until it is included in the next release
of jffnms.

So now it's a python script, too? The PostgreSQL script looks like a complete rewrite compared to docs/install/jffnms-0.9.4.pgsql.

Yes. Let's just close this bug. I'll work on it locally and coordinate
with the jffnms developers as to incorporating these codes into the 
next version release.


thx,
James
