Thanks Tom,
when I go down all files linked to libpq.so.3 end with a "statically
linked" comment. I assume this is the desired result.
However, I did find another libpq.so.3 in a different directory. When I
ldd it I get "no such file or directory. Maybe the original
installation by rpm put it there first. Could this problem be the
result of upgrading a rpm installation with a source upgrade which put
it in another directory, thus confusing psql?
thanks,
Phil
