# 14.3. Getting The Source

The PostgreSQL 8.2.12 sources can be obtained by anonymous FTP from ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v8.2.12/postgresql-8.2.12.tar.gz. Other download options can be found on our website: http://www.postgresql.org/download/. After you have obtained the file, unpack it:

    gunzip postgresql-8.2.12.tar.gz
    tar xf postgresql-8.2.12.tar

This will create a directory `postgresql-8.2.12` under the current directory with the PostgreSQL sources. Change into that directory for the rest of the installation procedure.
