[oi-dev] Moving on with postgresql

[Reginald Beardsley]

 Color me confused. Which server and which client are you talking about? I was referring to the IPS repository and it is not going to care about the age of a client.
 
I'm running 2017.10 on this system and can't install much, if anything, any more. Not sure if there is a way to do it, but with a new system on the way and my normal habit of building from source so I can debug if needed it's moot.

The only pkg I can find using "pkg search postgresql" before 10.x is

pkg: /database/postgres-96/mysql_fdw at 2.5.3-2020.0.1.0

However, I don't use Postgres despite compiling it quite a few times. It just never fit something I needed to do. So it's likely that this is a more nuanced question than I thought.

But collecting install statistics on the repository servers seems to me an important tool for allocating manpower.

Hi Reg

Unfortunately it does not. It never got that feature added.

It is a point for possible feature to add, but as many people are still
running old versions of the client, it will take quite a long time for
the statistics to get traction.
