I have this problem with Hardy and a pure PostgreSQL 8.3 setup, and have determined the problem to be from libpq-dev from hardy-backports.
I've tested a clean server setup without hardy-backports enabled, and pg_config reports correct paths to 8.3 and version 8.3.9. It is only when the hardy-backports are enabled that it becomes messed up and reports to 8.4 (version 8.4.2). This breaks configurations to extensions, like PostGIS. -- pg_config in libpq-dev is for 8.4.2 even though it's a dependency for 8.3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
