I’m not running Postgres server. It is running on the different machines. All I need is to build the client library. Why can’t I? Why it should matter what software (OS/compiler) I’m using? As long as I can successfully build my software and test it it should be fine.
David made it pretty clear: the PGDG changed the toolchain,
It didn’t change the toolchain - it changed configuration tools. But it’s not the point.
The point I’m making is that the software was providing the makefile and now it does not.
Thank you.
and decided not to support an OS that went EOL three years ago, and a compiler that's only getting security updates: "There is no guarantee or real attempt to keep modern supported versions running on software obsoleted before they even came into existence."
