I'm including the PostgreSQL example DB in the package's docs, so that should work all OK. I've been splitting out ODBC support locally since the very beginning, but everytime I mooted it, Wichert Akkerman (amongst others, but he was at the time gatekeeper to the debian/ dir in CVS, if you're wondering why I keep invoking him) disagreed on the grounds of archive bloat, since rlm_sql_iodbc only pulls in the one package (libiodbc2). I also promised that I would address _that_ once it was in the archive. :-) My personal inclination is to micro-packages, but I _like_ installing packages. :-) (I have a strange sense that my TODO list is starting to grow to match my available time... :-) -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 6th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Anu.edu.au "No survivors?
