What happend to odbc.sql & odbc-drop.sql

I am attempting to use the directions at
http://kandalaya.org//download/oo-pgsql.html
to configure odbc with pgsql and OpenOffice.org on a Fedora Core 4 system.

I found a message at:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2003-09/msg00087.php
which points to the psqlodbc cvs, but that appears empty.

And when I got psqlodbc-08.01.0100.tar.gz (that is the correct one to use with
postgresql-8.0.6 right?) and looked in it, there was no mention of the
odbc.sql  & odbc-drop.sql scripts, or even what should replace them.

So is there a reason why these went away?
What should they be replaced with?
Or should I just dig out an old copy of postgresql-7.X and grab them from
there for posterity?

It was removed because it is no longer required:

http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/psqlodbc/psqlodbc/convert.c?
rev=1.117&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup

Regards, Dave.

The psqlodbc-08.01.0200 is the most up to date stable release.
This version (08.01.XXXX has some limitations which older drivers doesn't
have (older = 08.00 and older).

So with postgresql-8.0.6 and postgresql-odbc-08.00.0100 as installed by
Fedora, I should be able to just skip section 5.1 of the kandalaya document then?

It might be good to add that little tidbit to your faq.html {patch attached,
but needs spell checked}.

and on the subscription page, the link to the FAQ seems broken too.
http://mail.postgresql.org/mj/mj_wwwusr?domain=postgresql.org&func=lists-long-full&extra=pgsql-odbc

Thanks for the update.

I would guess so, but I have no knowledge of that document.

Thanks, but as you're the first person I recall to ever ask that
question, I don't think it really counts as a faq :-) An update to the
kandalaya document would seem more appropriate.

No, that's maintained by Majordomo, the mailer software. I'm not sure if
we can change that - I'll ask the admin.

Thanks, Dave.
