Umm, I think the protocol version is up to 3 or 4 now. I think libpq
supports all the way back to 7.0, I don't know if anyone tests earlier
than that.
If you really need this to work, I suggest pulling the libpq from that
release (CVS or tarball) or slightly later and installing that on the
new machines.
Heh, that's what I'm currently doing, but it's not so easy to compile 6.4
on a new system. configure states that the compiler cannot create
executables, but I ripped this check out of it. Anyway, something goes
wrong while generating the Makefile:
Try to compile 7.0 or 7.1, those versions will probably still support the 6.4
wire protocol. I am sure someone with more historical knowledge (or reading
the release notes back to 6.4) can exactly tell you the latest version
compatible with 6.4.
OK. It worked with 7.4 + DBD not newer than 1.22 - more recent versions
simply make perl to dump core while connecting to postgres. ;)
