I am using a custom compilation based on PHP 5.3 and I need to upgrade the postgresql version from 9.2 to 9.3.
I am using docker for my infrastructure and the new lines I added was
yum remove postgresql -y && \
rpm -i /tmp/postgresql93.rpm && \
yum install postgresql93 postgresql93-devel -y && \
rm -rf /tmp/postgresql93.rpm && \
The compilation failed and the message was:
checking for pg_config... not found
configure: error: Cannot find libpq-fe.h. Please specify correct PostgreSQL installation path
Then I added the postgresql-devel package into the upgrade lines
yum remove postgresql -y && \
rpm -i /tmp/postgresql93.rpm && \
yum install postgresql-devel postgresql93 postgresql93-devel -y && \
rm -rf /tmp/postgresql93.rpm && \
I wonder why using the postgresql-devel is working if I also installed the postgresql93-devel.
In my previous compilation I was using postgresql-devel but I removed and I thought the postgresql93-devel should be work but it didn't.
Any idea why is this happening? What is the difference here and why do I need to use postgresql-devel either way?
