Update platform notes to build Postgres on macos
Hi,
I just built postgresql on macos sonoma (v14) and I had to install the
following packages:
* * icu - https://ports.macports.org/port/icu/
* * pkg - https://ports.macports.org/port/pkgconfig/
I don't see anything related to this on
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation-platform-notes.html
Did I miss something ? Should we add a note?
best,
Saïd
./configure —help
It will show that you can build —without-icu ,
you can also specify a path to pkg-config via PKG_CONFIG=/path/to/pkg-config
side note: I’ve had better experience building with brew on macos, rather than macports.

Hi
I think the documentation should be updated and all pre-reqs must be added.
