Re: Compile and build portable postgresql for mac

Thanks, I'll check them out. But what I am trying to produce is a zip
distribution fo Mac is x similar to the one available on postgresql
download site. Homebrew works but it ties the libpg to prefix if the path
where libs are generated. I am trying to do some unit testing across more
then one machine on an ongoing basis.

Hope that helps clear uo what I mean by portable.
