Could you attach your config.log file then?

Here it is. I ran ./configure since I posted the error occurred because
I was having problems with my system � it didn't reboot after the last
update. Hopefully, this will give you the info you're looking for. Let
me know if I can be of further assistance.

This is not the config.log file from the run that produced the warning
you are complaining about.

Here it is. I ran ./configure since I posted the error occurred
because I was having problems with my system … it didn't reboot
after the last update. Hopefully, this will give you the info
you're looking for. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

This is not the config.log file from the run that produced the
warning you are complaining about.

I did run configure several times since the error. I know nothing of
autoconf and didn't know to save the config.log file. I just ran ./
configure again for 8.3.5 and did not get the error. I have
installed other things since the error that probably fixed it. If
you know what package contains krb5.h, I can try to reproduce it.
Otherwise, it seems to be working fine now.

This is not the config.log file from the run that produced the
warning you are complaining about.

One other thing, I have tried to use fink ( MacOS X ) to install
postgresql, but reverted to downloading the source myself because the
non-standard directory structure that fink created for the package
was causing problems.

I'll see if I can reproduce the error.

The warning is about krb5.h, so in order to reproduce it, you should
probably at least put --with-krb5 into the configure line.

If we are to analyze the problem, then we must look at the config.log
file from the configure run that shows the warning.

In general, I think you are the first to show this problem, so it is
possible that it is a local misconfiguration rather than a general bug.

I agree, running with --with-krb5 did not produce the error. I think
the postgresql package installed by fink may have caused the problem,
or maybe it was a permission problem. I ran into that before

Either way, I think your software is good. If something happens in
the future, at least I will know to keep config.log.
