hi,
i tried to compile postgres 8.3.11 on SCO OpenServer 5.0.7
Possibly stupid question: Why?
Do you need the Pg server to run on SCO OpenServer? Or just a client?
Have you considered running your (presumably SCO-based) client with a
network connection to a Pg server running on something a bit more modern
and maintainable?
If so, is your goal to get a newer libpq built for SCO? Because getting
libpq to build might be a whole lot easier than getting the whole Pg
client+server to build and run.
I maintain a SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 box (thankfully now as a VM) and I'd
never, ever, ever run any service I didn't have to on it. It's a fossil,
and while I have to keep it around for one app (for now) I cannot
imagine voluntarily deploying anything new on it under any circumstances.
