So the RPM postgresql-libs-9.2.9-1 was installed at some point in the
past. This is just the client libraries for Postgres. I am not familiar
with AIX, but I have to believe the package is similar to:

https://centos.pkgs.org/7/centos-x86_64/postgresql-libs-9.2.18-1.el7.x86_64.rpm.html

What version of Postgres and what package(s) did she install?

Or if not packages how did she install it?

What was the exact error?

What does find for libpq return now?

Also what version of psqlodbc are you trying to install?

How are you installing psqlodbc?

A suspicion I am working on is that even if newer versions of libpq
where installed, PATH issues my be preventing psqlodbc from finding them.

Of which installation package?
