Re: [HACKERS] PostgreSQL from source using MinGW
Thjis is done all the time - see for example http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_history.pl?nm=goose&br=HEAD At a minumum you will need to install the DTK and from recollection also bison (must be 1.875) and flex (must be 2.5.4) from the gnuwin32 project You don't need an extra make - the make that comes with Mingw is Gnu make and works just fine. cheers andrew Lee, Patricia S. wrote: Hi, All.
