tux0r: well. I didn't try the SFE spec file (stalled at version 9.6). But given that postgresql is a friendly guest on omnios, version 17 might work as well.

version 16 works just great, and it's in pkg.extras, but version 17 is said to be even faster, so i wonder...

The master branch of Postgresql has two buildfarm member that are illumos one omnios and one OpenIndiana both did build.

good to know
