Hi,

Am looking to compile some software that will make use of Postgresql libraries.

However doing "apt-cache search postgresql-11-*" I can't see any libs or dev package ?

Would installing "postgresql-client-11" be sufficient ?   I don't really want to go installing the whole shebang.

Thanks !

Laura

postgresql-server-dev-11 - development files for PostgreSQL 11
server-side programming

libpq-dev - header files for libpq5 (PostgreSQL library)
libpq5 - PostgreSQL C client library

Would installing "postgresql-client-11" be sufficient ?   I don't really want to go installing the whole shebang.
