Why do we even have individual symlinks in pub/src? Seems to me we
could replace the whole src directory with a symlink to source, and
eliminate one bit of release bookkeeping ...

For some reason we have /pub/source/vX.X.X/ And /pub/src/X.X.X Note the missing v on the second. I dunno why we have both - did some bad URLs get advertised at some point? If that's the case, perhaps we could get rid of one set now. All the v8 announcements pointed to the websites ftp browser, so I doubt anyone is likely to miss one set of symlinks. Regards,Dave.

Urgh. No offence to Peter, but I think it's a helluva lot messier having all those symlinks. Not to mention the binary/ dir which doesn't have a non-v'ified bin/X.X.X equivalent. Can we lose /src and just keep /source and /binary (personally I don't care whether or not we keep the v's on the subdirs)? It probably causes a lot of bandwidth to be wasted as well - I recently found a mirror site that was mirroring the entire ftp ste using about 20 simultaneous ftp connections. I'll bet that didn't copy the symlinks as symlinks and instead grabbed all the files again, each time it tried to 'sync'. I barred that particular site in the ftpd conf, but there could be others of course. Regards, Dave

So do I get rid of the src directory altogether then, since apparently nobody likes, or wants, it? :) On Tue, 1 Feb 2005, Peter Eisentraut wrote: > Dave Page wrote: >> Urgh.

It'll reduce the number of webpages built on svr2 somewhat as well :-) Regards, Dave.

Just to recap, I believe my complaint at the time was that release announcements and the like were inconsistent regarding the version names (not anymore, I think). But having duplicate directories on the FTP server really doesn't help that. :) -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/
