Re: Linux equivalent library for "postgres.lib" from Windows

We need to know the equivalent library in Linux to build the same in Linux to get the symbols resolve correctly.

Any help is appreciated.

There is no need to go down to this level of details perhaps? You could just use the PGXS infrastructure to guess it for you.
