Hi, ALL,
I wonder who ade the decision not to provide an independent build
of the client library of PostgreSQL? And what was the reason behind it?

Its very annoying to build the whole server, just to create a client library
to connect to a remote DB. And then kill the build after the install as
useless.

Could someone please recommend a best way to have it build?

Thank you.
