15.3. Getting The Source

Note: The following description applies only to Postgres-XL

The Postgres-XL 9.2 sources can be obtained from its Web site or development site. After you have obtained the file, unpack it:

gunzip pgxl-v9.2.tar.gz
tar xf pgxl-v9.2.tar

This will create a directory pgxl under the current directory with the Postgres-XL sources. Change into that directory for the rest of the installation procedure.

You can also get the source directly from the version control repository, see Appendix H.
