At the Top

After many, many and more builds ( 3 days worth at 1 hour a build ) of postgresql 8.2.2 and PyGreSQL, I hacked together a deb with libpq5 using a python setup file. Use at your on RISK. The basic and func examples work but the advanced and syscat fail. I think it is just the examples need to be tweaked. It uses python's date and time stuff.

Why?
I just wanted to use my postgresql on my OpenBSD box.

To test the example with your postgresql server.

In a xterm.

cp /usr/share/doc/tutorial/basics.py.gz /home/user/MyDocs/.documents

cd /home/user/MyDocs/.documents

gunzip basics.py

start python

import basics

cnx=basics.DB(dbname='MY_DATABASE', host='MY_HOST', user='MY_ACCOUNT', passwd='MY_ACCOUNTS_PASSWD')

My Debian packaging skills are about 2 on a scale of 10.

That said here is the file :


python2.5-libpq5-pygresql_3.8.1-1_armel.deb
