Hello postgresql developers,
assuming, of course, somebody actually reads this bug report.
Naively checking the build using "make check" (yes, gnu make, and as an
unprivaleged user) fails all tests. The apparent reason is that
postgres cannot find its shared libraries.
FIX:
Enter
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/src/postgresql-8.3.0/src/test/regress/tmp_check/install/usr/local/lib
before "make check" and all the tests are then successful.
Cheers,
Mike Dowling
