Hello Everybody,

	I recently got the new version of Postgres95. When I was going to in       
install it. I got error in the last phase when combining a stuff of .o to pos       
postgres . I saw the option in 'cc' is -lbsd -ldl ...
	But the compiler say ' -ldl : no such file or directory' . I compile the
postgres95 in linux with kernel 1.2.8 and gcc version is 2.6.3. I tried in ELF mode 
mode and non ELF mode . I successfully compiled in non ELF mode but the createdb
and createuser is no respond from backend.
	Is there any one successfully compiled postgres95 ? can you give me some
suggestion.

	Thank you for you attention.

Your sincerely,
Kelvin Ng {:O

Hi folx!  I just joined this list.. Is there much activity normally?
I have several questions just dying to be answered but I'll wait a little 
longer before I decide I have no clue whatsoever.

In the mean time, I can handle this one I think...

Its -ldld isn't it?  Anyway, this is a simple problem with a simple solution.
You need to obtain the dynamic load library from sunsite before you 
compile Postgres95 yourself.  Its available from 
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/lib/dld.3.2.7.tar.gz.  Get that, compile 
and install it and your Postgres95 should compile mucho better.

I personally am not using Postgres95.. I had some difficulties at first 
getting everything to work and all.  Particularly the libpq interface.  
I'm using Postgres4.2a now and its working fine. Maybe now that I 
understand what I'm doing I'll try Postgres95 again.
