There were several queries in 2014 regarding the absence of plpython2.dll from 
the Enterprise DB Postgres distribution for Win32. I should have thought that 
this omission was simply an oversight, which would have been rectified by now. 
However, I find that plpython2.dll is still missing from the EDB distribution 
of Postgres 9.6.3.



I have raised this with EDB. I received an acknowledgment, but I have not heard 
anything more. That is not surprising, as I am a person of no importance. A 
suggestion from Postgres.org that the library should be included might carry 
more weight.
The point was made in 2014 that Postgres.org is not responsible for what EDB 
includes in its distributions. On the other hand, there is a link to the EDB 
site in the Postgres site, and that might be taken as an endorsement. If EDB 
are not willing to provide the library, at the least you might include a 
warning that the distribution is not complete.
I suppose I could try to build the library myself. Would I have to build the 
whole of Postgres, or is is feasible to build just the library that I am 
missing? If the latter, which source files would I need to include in the build?
