* Installation of Postgres Rel 4.2 on Linux

I'm working my way through the installation of postgres Release 4.2 on
Linux OS version 1.1.76.
I've got an undefined variable, yypvt in src/backend/parser/gram.y.
I've searched for a definition of yypvt in the postgres source and
can't find any.
1. Can anyone give me any hints about yypvt?
2. Does anyone have postgres Release 4.2 working on Linux so I might ask
you other installation questions?
3. Is there anything else I need to do for Linux that's not documented in
the 'Postgres Installation Instructions'?

Make sure, you install Berkeley yacc (byacc), not Bison in
/usr/bin/yacc. Then your problems should go away.

It is the name of the main parser stack. yypvt is used by
standard unix yacc, while both bison and byacc use yyvsp.
In case of byacc, the problem is automatically #define'd
away from you in the source file gram.y.

Make sure you get the real linux port, as found in:
ftp://s2k-ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/postgres/unofficial-ports/linux
ftp://marie.physik.tu-berlin.de/pub/linux/postgres
ftp://ftp.lysator.liu.se/pub/linux/postgres

If you just grab the binaries for Postgres, then you won't have
problems.

don't use the standard distribution, use the stuff in
s2k-ftp.cs.berkeley.edu:/pub/postgres/unofficial-ports/linux
