The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5721 Logged by: Alexia Lau Email address: a...@esri.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0.1 Operating system: SUSE 11/RHEL 5.5 32-bit & 64-bit Description: EnterpriseDB linux one-click installer missing libuuid.so.16 Details:
Hi, I'm running into the same problem reported with bug #5677, but I'm installing on SUSE 11 and RedHat 5.5. I saw a thread below and Dave Page mentioned that there's a bug which didn't copy the library properly which has been fixed at PostgreSQL 9.0.2. What is the bug number related to this and when is the planned release for 9.0.2? Will EnterpriseDB fix the one-click installer for linux builds to this?

I'm still wondering why they're linking to libuuid.so. > Dave? Because that's what comes with ossp-uuid 1.6.2, and I assume is what configure chooses when we use --with-ossp-uuid: [buildf...@bf2-linux ~]$ uuid-config --libs -luuid FYI, there was also a bug in the installer which didn't copy the library properly, which has been fixed for 9.0.2. -- Dave Page PostgreSQL Core Team http://www.postgresql.org/ -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
