The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Description:

Hello there,

Below are complete steps for building Postgres from source in a clean docker
ubuntu container. 

Maybe this is useful for your docs? I noticed the 'Chapter 17. Installation
from Source Code' doesn't discuss many common dependency issues like ICU and
Zlib. 

If you would like a write up, I can contribute.

Thanks,
Sundip
