If that file is in fact present, I'd have expected "make USE_PGXS=1" to work. The error you cite looks like what would happen without USE_PGXS --- are you sure you get the exact same error both ways? If you're still baffled, it might help to show Gevel's Makefile. It's possible it isn't invoking pgxs correctly. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
