Yes, unless you configured with --enable-depend during your previous build (and I wouldn't necessarily swear that --enable-depend catches every possible dependency). When in doubt --- especially if your build fails but the buildfarm seems happy --- do a distclean & rebuild before investing any intellectual effort in figuring out the problem. My own practice, developed after a couple of unpleasant episodes of this sort, is to make distclean before any cvs update. Machine cycles are cheap, my time isn't. I've found that I can generally overlap the rebuild time with useful work, or at least mail-reading ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
