PGXN Client 1.2 released

[Daniele Varrazzo]

The PGXN Client version 1.2 has been released.

The PGXN Client is a command line tool designed to interact with the
PostgreSQL Extension Network allowing searching, compiling,
installing, and removing extensions in a PostgreSQL installation or
database.

The new features in version 1.2 are:

- Packages can be downloaded, installed, loaded specifying an URL
(ticket #15).
- Added support for '.tar' files (ticket #17).
- Use 'gmake' in favour of 'make' for platforms where the two are
distinct, such as BSD (ticket #14).
- Added '--make' option to select the make executable (ticket #16).

Many thanks to everyone who contributed with code and ideas
to this version, especially Peter Eisentraut and Andrey Popp.

Quick tip: to install or update PGXN Client you can run:

$ sudo easy_install -U pgxnclient
