Re: FC2 install cannot find libpq-fe.h

Hi Raphael,

Installing the developer RPM for PostgreSQL fixed the problem, thanks for
the quick and accurate response.

For anyone who may read this, the next problem with the configure is that
it requires the following:

cd /usr/local/include
ln -s wx-2.5/wx .
./configure --with-wx=/usr/local

wxWindows RPM for FC2 installs in /usr/local/ instead of /usr and does not
create a directory named /usr/local/include/wx where pgadmin's configure
expects it.

That brings me to the next problem, which is this:

Making all in src
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/share/pgadmin3/pgadmin3-1.0.2/src'
if g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..

'./'`ui/frmConnect.cpp; \
then mv ".deps/frmConnect.Tpo" ".deps/frmConnect.Po"; \
else rm -f ".deps/frmConnect.Tpo"; exit 1; \
fi

(frmConnect::*)(wxNotifyEvent&)' to type `void

make[2]: *** [frmConnect.o] Error 1

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Rick

In general linux distros separate headers from binaries so that you
don't waste disk space with non-wanted files.
You should install the devel package. Try to install postgresql-devel
rpm package, it should contain the files you need.

I heard someone around who told "there are only stupid answers, not
questions...". As I'm not an FC2 expert, I hope my answer was not too
stupid and that it will help you going further.

Raphaël
