However,when running "make" with Postgres 13's pg_config, its giving error:

Note that the PGDG repositories are not supported on Amazon Linux.
https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ has a list of

On CentOS, which is, you need to run:
yum install centos-release-scl-rh
To get access to the required packages. I have no idea if the same
thing exists on Amazon Linux, but it might be worth a try.
