The two similar, existing messages are:

+#define NO_LZ4_SUPPORT() \
+ ereport(ERROR, \
+ (errcode(ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED), \
+ errmsg("unsupported LZ4 compression method"), \
+ errdetail("This functionality requires the server to be built with lz4 support."), \
+ errhint("You need to rebuild PostgreSQL using --with-lz4.")))

src/bin/pg_dump/pg_backup_archiver.c: fatal("cannot restore from compressed archive (compression not supported in this installation)");
src/bin/pg_dump/pg_backup_archiver.c: pg_log_warning("archive is compressed, but this installation does not support compression -- no data will be available");
src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c: pg_log_warning("requested compression not available in this installation -- archive will be uncompressed");
