Hi Tom, thanks for quick response. I have to apologize to you, PG from source is fine. Sorry for wasting your time.
It only happens that after I put it into archive (tar czf postgresql-9.6.7-linux-x64-binaries.tar.gz pgsql) and extract it, that it is empty and it looks like it is a bug in java library implementation of tar.gz. Once again, sorry for wasting your time. Thank you very much for your support.
