Re: Problem with executing PostgreSQL on Embedded Linux

"isinf" normally lives in libm; libm normally gets linked to the postgres
binary:

cd ~/postgresql-8.1.4/src
grep -- -lm Makefile.global
LIBS = -lssl -lcrypto -lz -lreadline -lcrypt -lresolv -lnsl -ldl -lm

ldd /usr/bin/postgres | grep libm
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x40277000)

nm /lib/tls/libm.so.6 | grep isinf
0000d0c0 t __GI___isinf
000140f0 t __GI___isinff
0001bc50 t __GI___isinfl
0000d0c0 t __isinf
000140f0 t __isinff
0001bc50 t __isinfl
0000d0c0 t isinf
000140f0 t isinff
0001bc50 t isinfl

So the obvious question seems to be: is your postgres binary linked against
libm? Just a guess though - I'm not on any kind of Embedded Linux ...

Ciao,
Thomas
