The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5677 Logged by: Andrew Geery Email address: andrew.ge...@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0 Operating system: Ubuntu 10.10 Description: missing libuuid.so.16 library Details:
In 8.4, the one-click installer for Linux from EDB included the libuuid.so* libraries in the PGLIB directory. However, in the 9.0 one-click installer for Linux from EDB, these libraries are no longer included. On Ubuntu 10.10, attempting to run the uuid-ossp.sql script produces this error because of the missing libuuid* libraries: ERROR: could not load library "/opt/PostgreSQL/9.0/lib/postgresql/uuid-ossp.so": libuuid.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory SQL state: 58P01 The workaround is to copy the libuuid* libraries from the 8.4 installation into the 9.0 PGLIB directory. Not sure why those libraries were removed in 9.0 -- I was unable to find an Ubuntu package that supplied libuuid.so.16. In /lib, there are libuuid.so.1 and libuuid.so.1.3.0, but symbolically linking them to libuuid.so.16 failed.
