Just one small request, after I gave this a swift compile. Could it be
possible have the --enable-sql flag to configure accept a path to the
installation for PostgreSQL? By default, when one compiles the postgresql
source, the binary, libs, includes, et. al, go into /usr/local/pgsql. when
autoconfed, gnucash goes to look for libpq-fe.h, and tries to find it, in
pgsql/, postgresql/, then by itself.. something along the lines of:
for ac_hdr in pgsql/libpq-fe.h postgresql/libpq-fe.h libpq-fe.h ...
There is no prefixed path given to these, for them to be found, and
ultimately fail. If they were given at configuring time, they could easily be
passed to these, and find what they're suppsoed to find; like when someone
specifies the base directory for their gnome installation to be in /opt/gnome.
could this be given a try, and if needing a default, give
/usr/lib/postgresql, so most software dists don't have to worry with including
programs put in odd places? I don't see where this would hurt.. if it does,
lemme know. :) I hacked configure in my tree for 1.6.5 to find it in the right
places, but supplying a path to it would be tons easier.
