Обсуждение: armhf platform
Hello, I would like to contribute by building packages for all supported versions on armhf (Raspbian) platform. My main OS is Debian stretch, but I can try to have earlier versions installed if needed. I do not know where and whom to contact so posting in here. Thanks & regards, Ertan Küçükoğlu

Hi Ertan, at the moment we are building packages for all distributions and architectures synchronously, i.e. from a single "matrix" job in Jenkins. For this to scale for armhf, we would need to know how long building typical packages takes on that platform. Could you give building postgresql-10 from the .dsc a try and time it? How many builds (e.g. for sid,buster,stretch,jessie) can you run in parallel, and how long does that take? (Also, why armhf, and not arm64?) Christoph

Raspberry Pi does not have very powerful CPU. I am using stretch as my mainOS now. I need to change SDCard (Raspberry Pi runs on an SDCard or USB) in order to boot for another OS version likejessie. But, if it is possible to build for jessie when running in stretch, I can try to do that. I will need some help as I did not build PostgreSQL (any version) from sources before. I have some knowledge about buildingapplications from source code. Just no experience with PostgreSQL. Should I use SVN or similar to get sources for PostgreSQL 10? Some readme link would be fine for me to try building postgresql-10from .dsc and get timing for it. I am developing some commercial applications on Raspberry Pi. I also use Raspberry Pi for testing my new code and then Ideploy it to production including database. I very much wanted to use PostgreSQL 10 in my latest work, but even stretchversion support only 9.6.x as binary install from apt at the moment. I did not try to work on source build just becauseI do not feel comfortable about it. I have armhf platform and no arm64 available. After I see that postgresql latest versions are available (not from debiandomain, but from postgresql domain) I wanted to have it available for myself and help others who need it as I do.

But, if it is possible to build for jessie when running in stretch, I can try to do that. We use "chroot"s for building for multiple targets on one host. (See "schroot" and "sbuild".) > I will need some help as I did not build PostgreSQL (any version) from sources before. I have some knowledge about buildingapplications from source code.

Some readme link would be fine for me to try building postgresql-10from .dsc and get timing for it. "apt-get source postgresql-10". The repo is stored in git, but using the source package is good enough to get started. Christoph
>We use "chroot"s for building for multiple targets on one host. >(See "schroot" and "sbuild".) I will probably need to get some help on these even after my research. I will see how I can manage to install them on mysystem first as there are no such commands in my system that I could find. >"apt-get source postgresql-10". The repo is stored in git, but using the source package is good enough to get started. It takes roughly following timings on my system: ./configure: 2 minutes make all: 30 minutes did not run "make install"

> You'd need to run "make check-world". It takes about 1 hour and 10 minutes to complete. I do not see any error messages raised. Is there any particular checksto be done in the log generated? BTW, I installed "schroot" and "sbuild" using apt-get on my system. Just have no experience setting them up for differentOS and PostgreSQL versions.
