Question on inconsistency between PGDG deb "server-dev" and rpm “devel" packages regarding “libpgfeutils.a"

Hi all,

I noticed a small inconsistency between the PGDG server-dev package for Debian-based distributions

 (postgresql-server-dev-<version>) and devel package for RHEL-based distributions 

(postgresql<version>-devel) and I wanted to check if this is intentional.

On Debian-based systems, the postgresql-server-dev package includes the static library libpgfeutils.a, 

whereas the corresponding RPM package (postgresql<version>-devel) does not include this library.

I wanted to understand whether this difference is by design.

If so, could someone please share the reasoning behind excluding libpgfeutils.a from the RPM packaging?

It would help clarify whether this is something downstream packagers should align with or handle separately.


Thanks for your time and for all the great work that goes into maintaining the PGDG repositories.


Best Regards,

Some packages need it, but it's rare and possibly there's ways to
avoid it. Now if I remembered which package that was...

    Move libpgport.a, libpgcommon.a, and libpgfeutils.a from libdir to pkglibdir

    These static libraries are server-version dependant (though many
    functions are compatible), so move them from $libdir to $pkglibdir, i.e.
    from /usr/lib/<triplet> to /usr/lib/postgresql/NN/lib.

    Install usr/lib/*/libpgfeutils.a
