<p>Adrian Holovaty and I spent some time today figuring out how to get the <a href="http://initd.org/software/psycopg/">psycopg Postgres module</a> to install on Red Hat 9. It took a while, but eventually we tweaked the spec file and used it to compile our own <acronym title="Red Hat Package Manager">RPM</acronym>. I've posted our modified spec file <a href="http://lists.initd.org/pipermail/psycopg/2003-December/002482.html" title="[Psycopg] Updated spec file for Redhat 9">to the psycopg mailing list</a>. More for my own record than anything else, the arcane incantations needed to create the <acronym title="Red Hat Package Manager">RPM</acronym> went roughly as follows:</p> <ol> <li>Copy the modified <samp>psycopg.spec</samp> file in to <samp>/usr/src/redhat/SPECS/</samp></li> <li>Copy <samp>psycopg-1.1.11.tar.gz</samp> in to <samp>/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES</samp></li> <li>In the SPECS directory, run <samp>rpmbuild -ba psycopg.spec</samp></li> <li>Install the resulting <acronym title="Red Hat Package Manager">RPM</acronym>, which materialised in <samp>/usr/src/redhat/RPMS</samp></li> </ol> <p>The above was recreated by digging through my bash history - hopefully I haven't missed a step. The technique appears to work for Fedora as well.</p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/adrian-holovaty">adrian-holovaty</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/linux">linux</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/postgresql">postgresql</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/python">python</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/red-hat">red-hat</a></p>
