I was having trouble compiling and linking postgres v6.1.1. I asked the
following question:
I am trying to get postgres 6.1.1 to compile on dec unix 3.2g. I am using
dec c compiler. I am getting the following error:
gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/usr2/local/development/postgresql-v6.1.1/src/libpq'
gmake[3]: `libpq.a' is up to date.
gmake[3]: Leaving directory
`/usr2/local/development/postgresql-v6.1.1/src/libpq'
cc -I../../include -I/usr/local/include -DNOFIXADE -Dalpha
-I../../libpq-c p sql.c -o psql.o
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/cfe: Error: psql.c: 46: Cannot open file
readline/history.h f or #include
gmake[2]: *** [psql.o] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory
`/usr2/local/development/postgresql-v6.1.1/src/bin/psql'
gmake[1]: *** [all] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/usr2/local/development/postgresql-v6.1.1/src/bin'
Which is looking for a history.h file. Is this a header file which should
be on the system or is it a gnu header file. Any info appreciated.
I received two responses that were right on the money. Thanks for the
info. The response are below:
