README (741B)
1 PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management 2 system (ORDBMS) based on POSTGRES. With more than 15 years of 3 development history, it is quickly becoming the de facto 4 database for enterprise level open source solutions. 5 6 Before you can run postgresql you'll need to create the database; 7 please see README_slackware.txt. 8 9 You need a "postgres" user and group prior to building postgresql. 10 Something like this will suffice for most systems: 11 groupadd -g 209 postgres 12 useradd -u 209 -g 209 -d /var/lib/pgsql postgres 13 Feel free to use a different uid and gid if desired, but 209 is 14 recommended to avoid conflicts with other stuff from SlackBuilds.org. 15 16 This is a fork from slackbuild.org's build script to bump to version 15.
