Can't compile a contrib util: dbsize (probably simply though)

Hello pgsql-general,

  When I am running "make" I get the following:

> gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -fpic -I.
-I~/postgresql-7.4.2/src/include-D_GNU_SOURCE   -c -o dbsize.o dbsize.c 
> dbsize.c:1: postgres.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:7: access/heapam.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:8: catalog/catalog.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:9: catalog/namespace.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:10: commands/dbcommands.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:11: fmgr.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:12: storage/fd.h: No such file or directory
> dbsize.c:13: utils/builtins.h: No such file or directory
> make: *** [dbsize.o] Error 1

I don't understand why it can't find these files.. They are indeed in
"~/postgresql-7.4.2/src/include" just as the -I points =(.

Tips will be much appreciated.

Regards,
 Vitaly Belman

I'd say you need to install the postgresql-devel package if you're on a rpm
based system.

-I~/postgresql-7.4.2/src/include-D_GNU_SOURCE   -c -o dbsize.o dbsize.c 

Make doesn't expand ~ for you, that's a shell thing. Replace it with
$(HOME). This is assumeing you edited the makefile to add that
directory.

Hope this helps,

The shell isn't gonna expand ~ for you when it's within a word like
that.  I think you were lucky that configure succeeded at all with
such a setting...
