Re: $libdir and 8.0

Check this out!

[pramsey(at)localhost bin]$ ./pg_config --pkglibdir
/home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/bin/lib/postgresql
^^^

And yet:

./port/pg_config_paths.h:#define PKGLIBDIR
"/home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/lib/postgresql"

Could the problem be here? (port/path.c):

/*
* get_pkglib_path
*/
void
get_pkglib_path(const char *my_exec_path, char *ret_path)
{
const char *p;

if ((p = relative_path(PGBINDIR, PKGLIBDIR)))
make_relative(my_exec_path, p, ret_path);
else
StrNCpy(ret_path, PKGLIBDIR, MAXPGPATH);
canonicalize_path(ret_path);
}
