hi, I am trying to compile the postgres-r patch, but ran into problems.. Probably just a simple lack of understanding of the make system. Any help is appreciated. I got the CVS head for postgres on Jul-31 and applying the Jul-31 patch from here: http://www.postgres-r.org/downloads/. The patch applies fine; no problems. When running autoconf it gives me the following warning when running "./configure --enable-replication" once the configure scripts has ran: $ ./configure --enable-replication ... configure: WARNING: option ignored: --enable-replication $ Subsequent compilation by simply typing "make" seems *not* to compile anything in "src/backend/replication" (teh compilation as such goes through). When going directly to this directory and typing "make", a few compilation errors appear for the file "local.c". I attached the output at the end of this e-mail. But they might simply be caused by some compilation flags not correctly set due to earlier problems. I' sure it's just a simple problem me not specifying some command line option (compilation host is RHEL5). So in hope of a simple answer, this question: Am I missing some compilation options?
