Hi,
I am using and installing pg on many servers running
FreeBSD and it works perfect.
Now I need to install a brand new Solaris 10 ( from
opensolaris.org) on amd64 (Opteron) and install pg on
it.
Till now I installed pg from source (on FreeBSD and
many linux systems).
My first question :
Is it better to install pg on Solaris from packages or
build it from source?
I am not fmiliar with Solaris and after many attemts
(to set the correct path for gmake,gcc, readline libs
and so on) I got ./configure to go flat.
But after running gmake as (postgres user) I got error
message and do not have idea how to fix it.
./configure --bindir=/usr/bin --libdir=/usr/lib/pgsql
gmake
.........
.........
gmake[1]: Entering directory
`/export/home/postgres/pginst/postgresql-8.1.4/doc'
gmake[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory

gmake[1]: Leaving directory

Pls., help me to resolve this problem or point me to
some detailed docs about installing pg on Solaris.
Many thanks,
ivan.
