DBD::Pg

From
David Wright
Date:
I have recently installed Mandrake Linux 7.1 and am attempting to get
some Perl interfacing happening.

I have downloaded the DBD-pg tar file and when I attempt to do a 'make'
it complains about a missing file 'libpq-fe.h'.

Can anyone tell me where I can locate this header file please?

Regards,
David

Depending on how you installed PostgreSQL, if you did it the way we
recommend it'll be in   /usr/local/pgsql/include   If you did it some
other way (rpm, package, deb, ...) then I'm not sure.

The DBD::Pg module REQUIRES two environment variables to be set and
exported. (last time I checked)

You might also try "find / -iname libpq-fe.h" in the future to find things
like this.

Good luck.
