Re: [PHP-DEV] Bug #444 Updated: Compile succeeds with PostgreSQL 6.1 but not 6.3 (Latest) From: Egon Schmid (eschmid <email protected>)
Date: 07/18/98

Im now relativly sure, when starting with 6.3.2 there is no libpq.so.1 to
find. This problem was solved by Bruce last Sunday. I had no problems
because postgres 6.3.1 build's libpq.so in its own lib directory and php
looks for /usr/local/lib/libpq.so.1. I looked at some straces and 6.3.2
builds no libpq.so only libpq.a.
