I don't know exactly what is going wrong here, but I've usually found it's impossible to troubleshoot these kinds of issues without reading config.log and the configure script itself. If you're able to figure out (either from config.log, or from reproducing it) exactly what the error message it's getting when trying to compile those headers is, you may be able to figure out what's gone wrong. I personally find this the most annoying thing about autoconf. My personal bugbear is when it says "you don't have package X installed" and I'm like "yeah I do", and then after ten minutes of pouring through the logs I realize "oh, you're looking for the bits that are only in the -devel package". It would make life a lot easier if it would say something like "you don't have package X installed (as judged by the fact that I couldn't compile with #include <wumpus.h>)". But it doesn't. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
