Thread: oidvector problem, latest version- has read other oidvector notes

I am having the same problem, but I have 'make clean' and run the whole
installation gambit on the latest pgsql package, every single time I got
the same answer Undef'd oidvector.
Is there anything that may be missing from the package?

Oops, my different installations are getting mixed up. My fault.

Almost certainly, this indicates that the 7.0 initdb is invoking a 6.5
(or older) postgres binary.  Check your PATH.
