The reference to the pq library needs to be corrected for what ruby-pg expects. For example, have_library: checking for main() in -lpq... -------------------- no The above error message says that it could not find libpq on your system in the configure step on the build. > Maybe pg.so is this native library, which cannot be linked during > installation ruby-pg? > I yes, then how can I force "gem install ruby-pg" to use this already > installed pg.so, instead of compiling it? > Again, you have libpq5 installed and the Ruby gem, ruby-pg, is looking libpg.
