Updated: postgresql-8.2.5-1


postgresql 8.2.5-1 is promoted from test to current.

What's new:
  http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release-8-2-5.html

Before you upgrade a postgresql package to a new new major or
minor version (7.4 => 8.0 => 8.1 => 8.2), be sure to dump all your data
before!
With the new package you will not be able to access your old databases.
=> http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-pg-dumpall.html
Minor subrelease updates (e.g. 8.2.4 to 8.2.5) can safely access the
same database.

Be sure to read the README.cygwin and the postgresql documentation.

Warning:
8.2.5-1 /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql has a minor bug in "initdb".
Comment out the line which does mkdir ${SOCKETDIR}
if you use this convenience script.

Please ask questions here at <cygwin@cygwin.com>,
and only if you really have to, over at <pqsql-cygwin@postgresql.org>.
