Subject: [PATCHES] Patch for INSTAL file.

The following patch does the following:

  - In step 6, recommend doing a database backup if you are upgrading
    from any version of the release, rather than ones before a specific
    date.

  - Added step 22a on regular maintainence.

Install file says: Type flex -- version
There is a space between -- and version that shouldn't
be there :-(

This patch modifies the INSTALL file.  The changes are:

    The special notes for it at the bottom of the file were removed.

    tables will be owned by the original owners instead of the
    postgresql superuser.
  - Modified step 19 on diagnosing the regression tests for the
    SPARC Linux platform with a beta release.
  - Other minor changes.

Fix typos in TZ setting for regression testing and in gmake redirection.

Subject: [PATCHES] Patch for INSTALL

The following patch makes a number of modifications to file INSTALL.
Among other things, it restores some platform specific notes I deleted.
It also no longer requires a separate compile for the regression tests.

Please note that this patch already incorporates the patch Hal Snyder
submitted on Monday.  Do not apply Hal's patch.

Subject: [PATCHES] New INSTALL file.

I have created a much more comprehensive version of the
/usr/src/pgsql/INSTALL file.  It should replace the current 970428 version
of this file.

tests now let you know if it is ok/failed :)
