It's complaining about the lack of libperl.so ... the other one is what it wants to build. > The 'configure' step seemed to be okay: AFAICT, our configure just believes what perl's ExtUtils::Embed and Config modules tell it ... it doesn't actually test the results. So I'm thinking either libperl.so isn't installed, or it isn't where those modules say it is --- which would be a Perl misconfiguration. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org/
