This package already exists in the NetBSD Packages Collection in
./pkgsrc/databases/postgresql
Edit the Makefile and simply add a hash character in front of the line
containing "NOT_FOR_PLATFROM" - see below
# Needs ELF clue, mips has no TAS implementation
#NOT_FOR_PLATFORM= *-*-alpha *-*-mips
I'm running NetBSD-1.5 on a AXPpci alpha system....
I fear that there is a good reason for it, but in previous versions
postgresql didn't build because of serveral 64bit issues which
nolonger seems to be a show stopper.
