Re: problem installing 8.0.0beta5 on OS X 10.3

You shouldn't need to edit configure. I compiled 8.0b5 on 10.3.6 with no
problems yesterday

I am no expert, but this error seems to have come up on other platforms...
Here was the response in the mailing lists before

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-ports/2004-07/msg00001.php

You may also want to report back to the list what your gcc version is?

Also, if you installed readline with fink you may need to configure like so:

./configure --with-libs=/sw/lib --with-includes=/sw/include

(if your fink is installing in /sw of course)
