Re: Is anyone interested in getting PostgreSQL working on mips[el]?
Martin,
While my build farm mipsel system (corgi) get the sigbus as reported below, lionfish does not. see
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=lionfish&dt=2006-01-08%2016:51:36, it is the same raq mipsel system
that I have. So it must be in the software. What do you think is the best way to tell? I believe my raq is up to date
as far as debian packages for sarge.
Thanks for you help
Jim
