Turns out this has been broken for years and we'd not noticed. The one case that was getting exercised in the buildfarm, or probably anywhere else, was postgres_fdw.sl's reference to libpq.sl; and it turns out that that was always going to libpq.sl in the actual installation directory not the temporary install. We'd not noticed because the buildfarm script does "make install" before it tests contrib. However, the recent addition of a logical-replication test to the core regression scripts resulted in trying to use libpqwalreceiver.sl before "make install" happens, and that failed for lack of finding libpq.sl, as shown by failures on buildfarm members gaur and pademelon. There are two changes needed to fix it: the magic environment variable to specify shlib search path at runtime is SHLIB_PATH not LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and the shlib link command needs to specify the +s switch else the library will not honor SHLIB_PATH. I'm not quite sure why buildfarm members anole and gharial (HPUX 11) didn't show the same failure. Consulting man pages on the web says that HPUX 11 honors both LD_LIBRARY_PATH and SHLIB_PATH, which would explain half of it, and the rather confusing wording I've been able to find suggests that +s might effectively be the default in HPUX 11. But it seems at least as likely that there's just a libpq.so installed in /usr/lib on that machine; as long as it's not too ancient, that would satisfy the test. In any case I do not think this patch will break HPUX 11. At the moment I don't see a need to back-patch this, since it only matters for testing purposes, not to mention that HPUX 10 is probably dead in the real world anyway. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
