Not Quite Daily...

Ok. Well..
So about that 'daily blogging'...

Anyway -

I just finished recompiling Postgresql 8.4 on my big machine after upgrading to Snow Leopard a few weeks back. It was surprisingly easy - make clean; make; sudo make install. Cake.

On my laptop I took the MacPorts approach, and while that might seem simpler, it took about ten times as long since it had to download half the open-source world before it saw fit to actually compile PSQL. Once it did however, everything worked well - I have yet to test my homemade incarnation of PSQL, so there may be a shoe waiting to drop here.
