Thread: [GENERAL] New 9.6.2 installation lacks /usr/lib/postgresql/
Just installed postgresql-9.6.2 on Slackware-14.2/x86_64 and initialized the database. However, there's no /usr/lib/postgresql/ directory with its subdirectories, and another application I'm building wants that location during configuration. Postgres was installed via the SlackBuilds.org build script which I've used for many years so I don't know where to start looking for the reason there's no postgres lib/ directory. Diagnostic help appreciated. Rich

There is, it is just not at /usr/lib/postgresql. Search for plpgsql.so As to the build you will either need to specify where the lib/ is in the configuration process or create a symlink . > > Diagnostic help appreciated. > > Rich > > -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@aklaver.com

As long as I provide grass with the proper path in the config file it's happy. Thanks, Rich
