The expansions in the build scripts all seem correct, and in fact, all
the libraries are installed in the right place, both the system stuff
(plpgsql.so) and the contrib stuff (libpostgis.so) ends up in
/opt/foo/lib/postgresql. It is the actual binaries that seem to not know
where $libdir is supposed to be.
prefix := /home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0
exec_prefix := ${prefix}
libdir := ${exec_prefix}/lib
pkglibdir = $(libdir)
ifeq "$(findstring pgsql, $(pkglibdir))" ""
ifeq "$(findstring postgres, $(pkglibdir))" ""
override pkglibdir := $(pkglibdir)/postgresql
endif
endif
