I don’t think this is platform specific, but Fedora Core 2 it is anyway. I was upgrading from v. 8.0 to 8.1.2. Ran the commands
./configure –with-perl
gmake
gmake check
with no apparent problems. Then
su root
gmake install
and it doesn’t get far before this happens:
...
gmake -C timezone install
gmake[2]: Entering directory `/home/postgres/postgresql-8.1.2/src/timezone'
gmake -C ../../src/port all
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/home/postgres/postgresql-8.1.2/src/port'
gmake[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/postgres/postgresql-8.1.2/src/port'

No file called libgen.so exists on the server. Any suggestions?
