Topic: Data Base server

This topic is not meant to request/demand any package.

Hello, I see that the current version of the software PostgreSQL is v17, while at Hyperbola points to v12 built at 2022. May I how whether there is a problem with licenses or freedom concerns? or just that needs time and Hyperbola has limited resources.

Thanks

Re: Data Base server

Hello,

yes there is the issue that PostgreSQL has finally removed support for Python2 and therefore for our Tauthon. So we see no point for updates being done at the moment. Never change a running system that easily. And patching back Python2-support is not easy done. If there is interest: We appreciate help.
