Re: PgAgent without wxWidgets?

Sorry, I meant pgagent that comes with pgadmin 1.9. That IS 3.0.0 release right?

That does not change my original issue however... I cant set up FreeBSD workstation just to compile dang pgagent - a lot of hassle (besides, don’t have a spare workstation). Isnt there really a way how to compile pgagent without invoking all those GUI dependencies?

Thanks!
Peter

wxWidgets isn't just GUI classes, and pgAgent doesn't require any of
the GUI dependencies to run. You should be able to build on a
workstation and then copy the resulting binary to your server without
having to install any X components.

Oh, and if you have a pgAgent that claims to be 1.9, then you have
some pretty old development code. Why not use the released 3.0.0
version?
