Thread: pg_restore and the use of encryption

pg_restore and the use of encryption

From
"Chris White"
Date:
I am trying to run pg_restore and it tells me it needs libssl, libcrypto, libkrb5 etc. Why does pg_restore need these libraries when neither pg_dump or postmaster require these libraries to run. Why is pg_restore requesting encryption libraries and what are they used for?
 
Thanks
Chris White

This seems very strange.  Are you sure those binaries are all from the
same release.  Is your pg_hba.conf a cause? I know of now special
connection requirements for pg_restore.

I don't think they could be.  Our build procedure computes just one LIBS
list and uses it for all executables, so in ordinary circumstances all
the executables will have the same set of shared-library dependencies.
Certainiy pg_dump and pg_restore will, if they were built at the same
time.

You are correct someone had rebuilt pg_dump, psql and postmaster without
encryption, but forgot to do pg_restore as they thought we would only be
using psql for restoring databases. Sorry about that.
