Don't know if this indicates a bug or an incomplete download, but:
Downloaded postgresql-7.3.3.tar.gz and unpacked it on our system
(sparc-sun-solaris2.6); ran the configure script, apparently successfully
(non-fatal warnings about not finding flex, bison, and zlib), and then
attempted to do make, with repeated error messages like this:
You need to run the 'configure' program first. See the file
'INSTALL' for installation instructions.
make: *** [all] Error 255
Inspected the configure and make scripts, and discovered references to
GNUmakefile and src/Makefile.global; but the postgresql-7.3.3 directories
do not have these files; there is a GNUmakefile.in and a
src/Makefile.global.in, but no plain GNUmakefile or Makefile.global; are
these files supposed to be created during configure? If so, what might
have gone wrong during the configure (config.log attached)? If not, where
can we acquire these files?
