The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 18194
Logged by: John Pace
Email address: johnpace95@mail.de
PostgreSQL version: 16.1
Operating system: Rocky Linux 9
Description:
1.
The file
https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/README
says you will find instructions to build PostgreSQL in the file INSTALL, but
this files does not exists.
https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/README.git
refers to
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation.html
for install instructions.
So please change the file README.
2.
Also please provide a list of required packages.
For Rocky Linux 9 I used this command line to install required packages:
dnf install git make gcc libicu-devel bison flex readline-devel zlib-devel
perl-FindBin perl-File-Compare
The configure-script shows some of these packages, but not all. I had to
find a lot of the required packages by examining the errors of make.
