From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312 Description of problem: There is no option in the installer to install the extra postgresql packages. At the very minimum they should be installable in SQL Database Server Package details. These packages include: mx-2.0.3-8.i386.rpm postgresql-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm postgresql-contrib-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm postgresql-devel-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm postgresql-docs-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm postgresql-jdbc-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm postgresql-python-7.3.2-3.i386.rpm ... and a bunch more. Do a rpm -qa | grep postgresql on Disk2 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): postgresql-*-7.3.2* How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run System Settings>Add/Remove Applications 2. Select Details in the SQL Database Server Group 3. They are nowhere to be found except grepping Disk2 for them Actual Results: They are nowhere to be found. Expected Results: The packages should show up in extra packages to be installed. Additional info: These packages Don't fit nicely into either SQL Database Server, or Development, but really should be selectable from somewhere. I would think that they should at least appear in SQL Database Server.
Reassigning to comps, which controls what is visible in each group.
postgresql-server brings in the base postgresql package. mx seems ancillary to postgres.
mx is a dependency on postgresql-python. The main issue is not that any particular item is ancillary to another. The issue is that there is no way to install the ancillary packages through Add/Remove Applications. The desire is to add those packages so they can be installed.
This looks better looking at the current FC3 devel comps file.
