Richard, thanks for your reply. I believe that PGSQL must point to the
postgresql source
directory. I am not sure where these sources are since I used emerge to build
PostgreSQL. I
can't remember if emerge removes the sources when it completes its processing.
Do you have any
suggestions for me to find/re-add these directories?
Ah, yes, portage will remove postgresql sources after building. So
you'll need to re-create the sources. Probably the easiest thing to
do is:
# ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql/postgresql-<version>.ebuild unpack
Then set the source directory to
/var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgresql-<version>/work/postgresql-<version>
At least I think the above directory is right...basically you should
end up with the source directory under
/var/tmp/portage/cat-egory/package-version/work/
If for some reason pg_filedump needs compiled postgresql sources, you can do:
# ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql/postgresql-<version> compile
This will let portage recompile postgresql the same way as it is
installed, so pg_filedump should be compatible.
Obviously replace all instances of <version> with the actual
postgresql version you have installed.

However, I did try your suggest by pointing the PGSQL to the source directory
for pg_filedump:
# PGSQL MUST POINT TO pgsql SOURCE DIRECTORY
#PGSQL=../../../../postgres/pgsql
PGSQL=/home/richard/work/pg_filedump-8.1
However, I am still getting the same error as before:
make
make: *** No rule to make target
`/home/richard/work/pg_filedump-8.1/src/backend/utils/hash/pg_crc.c', needed by
`pg_crc.o'. Stop.
Thanks for your reply.

Richard Broersma Jr.
