It's not clear to me how this would fit into the build system. The cross-compiled PostgreSQL build will be installed on the host system, whereas <host-triplet>-pg_config will remain on the build system. But we have no way of installing some bits here and some bits there. Then again, installing a pg_config on the host system that contains information for building on the original build system is wrong anyway. One thing you could do is always install <host-triplet>-pg_config when cross-compiling, and then have your surrounding package mechanism figure out what to install where. Possibly make pg_config a symlink to the above. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
