Thread: Problem with compilation 7.3.4
When i try to configure postgres before compilation returned errors: [wolk@Lucutus postgresql-7.3.4]$ ./configure --infodir=/usr/share/info configure: error: unrecognized option: --infodir=/usr/share/info Try `./configure --help' for more information. The infodir option is present in ./configure script postgres release 7.3.4 What is wrong? jacek wolk@jablko.one.pl

Someone was complaining about this just recently. We don't need the option and don't have it implemented, but configure --help advertises it anyway (and fails to advertise the --docdir option that we do have). Can that be fixed? regards, tom lane
