Re: [HACKERS] Uninstalling PostgreSQL ??!!

Does the PostgreSQL project officially only support Red Hat - I sure would like to see SuSE supported and
mentioned instead of just Red hat.  I'd be happy to generate SuSE RPMs for distribution via the PostgreSQL
site.

I thought I saw some discussion about this issue earlier.

Who generates the SuSE rpms distributed with the SuSE release.  These are of no value to me because I wish
to use /usr/local/pgsql for PostgreSQL.
