PostgreSQL 6.5 can be built on SCO UnixWare 7 and SCO OpenServer 5.
PostgreSQL 7.0 can be built on SCO UnixWare 7 and SCO OpenServer 5.
On OpenServer, you can use either the OpenServer Development Kit or
the Universal Development Kit.

By default, UnixWare does not look there for man pages, so you will not
be able to read them.
You need to make two changes to access the PostgreSQL man pages from UnixWare.
You need to make the following changes to access the PostgreSQL man pages
from UnixWare.
1) You need to modify the MANPATH environment variable. I use:
1) You need to modify the MANPATH variable in /etc/default/man. I use:
MANPATH=/usr/local/pgsql/man:/usr/dt/man:/usr/man:/usr/share/man:scohelp
export MANPATH
MANPATH=/usr/lib/scohelp/%L/man:/usr/dt/man:/usr/man:/usr/share/man:scohelp:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/pgsql/man
2) The man pages for SQL commands are, by default, placed in section l
(normally used for "l"ocal pages). UnixWare does not support the l section.
2) Add a line that says '1sql' to /etc/default/manSection.
The solution I use is to move all these pages from section l to an unused
section, such as section 6. To accomplish that:
3) The man pages for SQL commands are, by default, placed in section 'l'
(normally used for "l"ocal pages). UnixWare does not support the 'l'
section.
The solution I use is to move all these pages from section 'l' to a section
named '1sql'. To following KSH script will perform the move and change the
section names in the man page:
------------------------------8< CUT HERE >8------------------------------
#!/bin/ksh
cd /usr/local/pgsql/man
mv manl man6
cd man6
for file in *.l
mv man1 man.1
mkdir ../man.1sql
cd /usr/local/pgsql/man/manl
for i in *.l
do
mv $file `basename $file .l`.6
sed -e '/^\.TH/s/"l"/"1sql"/' $i >../man.1sql/${i%.l}.1sql
done
cd /usr/local/pgsql/man
rm -rf manl
------------------------------8< CUT HERE >8------------------------------
After running this script, you can view the man pages using the 'man'
command. They will not be usable from the scohelp system.
I am working on integrating the man pages into the scohelp system. When I
generate a PostgreSQL package for UnixWare 7.x, the man pages will be
integrated into the scohelp system.
I have not tried using the PostgreSQL man pages on OpenServer. Volunteers??
