Thread: make of 8.3.5 failed on Linux

Hello!

I am trying to build PostgreSQL 8.3.5 for Linux.

Error log

    ln -s libutf8_and_uhc.so.0.0 libutf8_and_uhc.so

Look into that directory and see if you have utf8_and_euc_jis_2004.c.
There are some broken versions of "tar" out there that fail to cope
with such a long filename.

Yes, you are right.

I renamed
file "utf8_and_euc_jis_2004."
to "utf8_and_euc_jis_2004.c" .

Tar(?) also cut files
euc_jis_2004_and_shift_jis_2004.c
and utf8_and_shift_jis_2004.c .
These two files didn't extracted ever.

I tried also tar at another server where FreeBSD 5.5 is installed.
The same effect:(

It's funny, but I was succussul only with WinRAR archiver :)

Thank you,
I got my "All of PostgreSQL successfully made. Ready to install." message
with your help.
