Dear List, |
| 2 |

| 3 |
This module is to replace the existing one that is shipped with |
| 4 |
<app-admin/eselect-postgresql-1.0.3. It is an entire rewrite. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Changes can be tracked at: |

Before you start reading the attached module, please bear in mind that I |
| 10 |
am a novice at writing BASH scripts, and am not intimately familiar with |
| 11 |
all the nuances of the language. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
There is some duplication of work within the module when compared with |
| 14 |
the current postgresql-{base,server}-*.ebuilds in the tree. The plan is |
| 15 |
to move that work being handled in the ebuilds to the module. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Setting a service slot has been dropped from the module as it is no |
| 18 |
longer necessary. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Features: |
| 21 |
* Supports --brief output |
| 22 |
* Prefix compatible |
| 23 |
* Slot specific application links (e.g., psql90, createdb84) |
| 24 |
* Automatically sets the highest slot available as the default unless a |
| 25 |
valid slot is already set |
| 26 |
* Properly orders LDPATH giving preference to the set slot and then |
| 27 |
lists the other slots in descending order |
| 28 |

Thank you. |

Sincerely, |
