Name : perl
Product : Fedora 9
Version : 5.10.0
Release : 38.fc9
URL : http://www.perl.org/
Summary : The Perl programming language
Description :
Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk
and shell scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files,
and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are
practicality and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of
different things, Perl's most common applications are system
administration utilities and web programming. A large proportion of
the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl. You need the perl
package installed on your system so that your system can handle Perl
scripts.
Install this package if you want to program in Perl or enable your
system to handle Perl scripts.

Name : postgresql
Product : Fedora 9
Version : 8.3.5
Release : 1.fc9
URL : http://www.postgresql.org/
Summary : PostgreSQL client programs and libraries
Description :
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system
(DBMS) that supports almost all SQL constructs (including
transactions, subselects and user-defined types and functions). The
postgresql package includes the client programs and libraries that
you'll need to access a PostgreSQL DBMS server. These PostgreSQL
client programs are programs that directly manipulate the internal
structure of PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server. These client
programs can be located on the same machine with the PostgreSQL
server, or may be on a remote machine which accesses a PostgreSQL
server over a network connection. This package contains the docs
in HTML for the whole package, as well as command-line utilities for
managing PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server.
If you want to manipulate a PostgreSQL database on a remote PostgreSQL
server, you need this package. You also need to install this package
if you're installing the postgresql-server package.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Update to new upstream minor release
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:
* Sun Nov 2 2008 Tom Lane <tgl(a)redhat.com> 8.3.5-1
- Update to PostgreSQL 8.3.5.
- Improve display from init script's initdb action, per Michael Schwendt
* Thu Sep 25 2008 Tom Lane <tgl(a)redhat.com> 8.3.4-1

* Fri Jun 20 2008 Tom Lane <tgl(a)redhat.com> 8.3.3-2
- Install Pgtcl in /usr/lib/tcl$TCL_VERSION, not directly in /usr/lib.
Needed because tcl 8.5 no longer puts /usr/lib into its package search path.
NOTE: do not back-port this change into branches using pre-8.5 tcl, because
/usr/lib/tcl8.4 had been a symlink to /usr/share/tcl8.4, and /usr/share
is exactly where we must not put Pgtcl.
Resolves: #228263
* Wed Jun 11 2008 Tom Lane <tgl(a)redhat.com> 8.3.3-1
- Update to PostgreSQL 8.3.3.
- Remove postgresql-prefer-ncurses.patch, no longer needed in recent
Fedora releases because libtermcap is gone.
- Enable LDAP support
Resolves: #445315
- Use -Wl,--as-needed to suppress bogus dependencies for libraries that
are really only needed by some of the subpackages
- Clean up cross-subpackage Requires: to ensure that updating any one
subpackage brings in the matching versions of others.
Resolves: #444271
* Thu May 22 2008 Dennis Gilmore <dennis(a)ausil.us> 8.3.1-2
- at Tom's request remove conditionalised patch letting sparc64 builds fail
* Thu May 22 2008 Dennis Gilmore <dennis(a)ausil.us> 8.3.1-2
- apply patch on sparc64 only to cover differences in output
