We do a staged installation of the extension library and scripts in an ad-hoc dir which does not match the built-in SHAREDIR of PostgreSQL. It works fine for testing the extension directly sourcing the scripts. It's only "CREATE EXTENSION" that doesn't play nicely with that setup. --strk; -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
