Daniel-san:

actually, the 9.1 package is already in place.. 
I simply changed the number 8.4 to 9.1 in the install script, and 
everything just worked

as far as pgRouting packages, yes, I see your point
someone would have to update pgRouting in that case

postgres 8.4 is four to five years old at this point

best regards

pgRouting is probably not going to work with 9.1, because the pgRouting 
packages on Launchpad are built for 8.4 for (X)ubuntu 11.04.It would be 
quite some extra work to just build packages for 9.1 and 11.04, which I 
would like to avoid, because these packages already exist for 11.10 (on 
my PC) and there were some patches necessary. And I don't want to 
revert to a script again to download, compile and install ;-)

So I'm -1 to install some "non-official" PostgreSQL version on this 
LiveDVD release. It will be just a matter of six months to have 9.1 
anyway if we will upgrade to 12.04. IMO, if 9.1 is so important we 
should have used 11.10 for this release.

Compatability for Postgres 9.1 is in the 90%   range
The problem people run into is that since Postgres is a fundemental 
piece of any stack,
it is some work to rebuild the stack to test with a new version... 
I would be surprised if there are any compatability problems at all for 
most all apps
other than people hard-coding version numbers and the like

Brian,

Based upon Peter's request, my feeling is that we should revert back to 
Postgres 8.4. Our emphasis on OSGeo-Live is "stability over cutting 
edge". This is because we are targeting new users who will be very 
quickly turned off if they find a bug, and will generally not be 
looking to check out the latest and greatest. (They can always go to a 
project page later if they want to find latest features). Anyone wish 
to weigh in on this topic before we make a call on which posgres to use?
