Description

I have modified the Portfile for postgresql90 @9.0.2 so that it will symlink all postgresql90-related binaries into {destroot}${prefix}/bin. This will place them into the PATH, for ease of use.

I am attaching the diff for the Portfile. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, speeves

Duplicate of #20810. This is not an appropriate way to solve this problem.

I neglected to notice that you were adding a suffix to the binaries. That's fine and good after all.

Bearing in mind that this affects all of the PostgreSQL ports, not just 9.0.

Currently the "port select" mechanism is available, so the binary names with version are really not available. If one needs another version, select one.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
