Hi,

I have postgres 9.5 and 9.6 installed.  pg_config points to 9.6. 
I am trying to compile a postgresql plugin (Timescaledb).  I am getting an error:
-----------------------------------------------
/usr/include/postgresql/pg_config.h:733:0: warning: "PACKAGE_VERSION" redefined
 #define PACKAGE_VERSION "10.0"
 ^
In file included from /usr/include/postgresql/9.6/server/c.h:53:0,
                 from /usr/include/postgresql/9.6/server/postgres.h:47,

/usr/include/postgresql/9.6/server/pg_config.h:740:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
 #define PACKAGE_VERSION "9.6.5"
-----------------------------------------------------

The command pg_config gives the following:

-------------------------------------------------

So my question is: what is generating the /usr/include/postgresql/pg_config.h file?  Why is it different than the /usr/include/postgresql/9.6/server/pg_config.h file?

Thanks!

Travis
