https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commit;h=1301c80b2167feb658a738fa4ceb1c23d0991e23 You seem to have put yourself into cutting edge PostgreSQL territory while remaining firmly old-school on the OS side of things…not usually a good place to find oneself. My LLM guided understanding is your likely 9.6 tool path was removed in favor of meson back in 2023. But meson itself is still working out the rough edges for stuff like a defined target for a libpq-only build and install. There is no guarantee or real attempt to keep modern supported versions running on software obsoleted before they even came into existence. You may or may not be able to finagle make/meson to do what you are attempting and the desire to help is limited. You may wish to consult an LLM of your choice for assistance. For something like this they can be very helpful with little downside. David J.
