Hi "CT",

What I don't understand is why you have to install all wxWindows stuff. As far as I understood, all our packages (deb,
rpms,slack, freebsd) are linked statically. The only thing you should install is pgadmin3 package and its
dependencies...Did you try this first ? 

If you really need to do the build by yourself, can you try what Mark suggested to pgadmin-support this morning and
tellus if it works for you ? Please also try to always cc to pgadmin-support and/or pgadmin-hackers lists. Be sure that
ifanybody has a beginning of an answer to give to you he will.  

Jean-Michel, Mark has reported some informations on the build/install process on Suse 8.2 to pgadmin-support, can you
checkthat everything is up to date in documentation and that we didn't miss anything (dependencies and so on) ? 

regards,
Raphaël

Dear CT,

We provide source and binary RPM packages for SuSE 8.2 as explained on
http://www.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/download.php#mirrors

After downloading pgAdmin3 RPM for SuSE 8.2, follow the instuctions from
http://www.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/download.php#binaries

Installing pgAdmin3 binary RPM is the recommanded way because:
- RPM warns you about missing dependencies,
- RPM will allow you to upgrade easily later.

You can also build pgAdmin3 completely from source as explained on
http://www.pgadmin.org/pgadmin3/download.php#source

When you are done, could you get back to us to confirm the installation was
successfull.

Thanks, Jean-Michel
