Thread: Static build of libpq fails

Static build of libpq fails

From

Hi,

I tried building a static libpq with Mingw, which it seems doesn't work
any more:

make[3]: *** No rule to make target `libpq.a', needed by
`all-static-lib'.  Stop.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/cvs/pgsql/src/interfaces/libpq'
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/cvs/pgsql/src/interfaces'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cvs/pgsql/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2

I can work around this easily enough, however it should obviously get
fixed at some point.

Regards, Dave

$ ./configure --disable-shared; make all

Will fail (and still does with cvs tip). I normally use that on Linux -
I assume it should also work on Mingw.
