Actually, it doesn't make sense to me. I was being polite. :-) I
thought the postgresql-7.2.tar.gz had everything, including HTML. At
least I think it should.
In fact, in looking at the postgresql-7.2.tar.gz tarball, I see:
FAQ FAQ_Solaris TODO
FAQ_AIX FAQ_german TODO.detail/
FAQ_DEV FAQ_japanese bug.template
FAQ_HPUX KNOWN_BUGS man.tar.gz <----
FAQ_IRIX MISSING_FEATURES postgres.tar.gz <----
FAQ_MSWIN Makefile src/
FAQ_QNX4 README.mb.big5
FAQ_SCO README.mb.jp
So, it has the man pages and HTML files? OK, I see now, the man pages
are in the base tarball postgresql-base-7.2.tar.gz, so they don't need
to be in the doc tarball. Now, I really do get it.
