Thread: [GENERAL] Compiling libpq only on Linux

 Hi, ALL,
Quick question - what is the best way to compile libpq only on Linux?

I just checked and currently my distro (I didn't updated in a long time)
has 9.5 version as current.

Should I grab  it, unpack it and do configure and then make inside
libpq directory
manually? Or there is some other way?

Thank you.

Pretty much yes.

You could look for updated distribution packages, even if they are not
directly from your vendor.
