My production server is running Postgres 9.0 on Ubuntu Server, and I'm
getting some errors in sprocs that call uuid_generate_v1()..  This is
because the function is missing.

On my Windows box, this function would automatically be installed as
part of the database..  If I try to create the function with:


CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION uuid_generate_v1()
  RETURNS uuid AS
'$libdir/uuid-ossp', 'uuid_generate_v1'
  LANGUAGE c VOLATILE STRICT
  COST 1;

I get:

ERROR: could not load library
"/opt/PostgreSQL/9.0/lib/postgresql/uuid-ossp.so": libuuid.so.16:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
SQL state: 58P01

How do I get this working under Linux?  Thanks!!

Mike
