Postgres Client other than Linux?

I have installed all Postgres 7.0.3 packages (server, client, lib,
development, etc.) for my Redhat 6.2 Linux.

I also have a HP machine with OS HP-UX 10.20, I have installed
Perl 5.6 and DBI. But when I install DBD (DBD-Pg-0.95) it requires
me install all those *.h files and libpg.* files first. I don't want to
install PostgreSQL server in the HP machine, I only want to install
the software development package and the client for my HP. But
I only find the whole source postgresql-7.0.3 package from PostgreSQL
Web site. Besides, I also had problem to compile the postgresql-7.0.3
in HP-UX 10.20. Any help? Thanks!

it is just another way to spread the blames.

There is a build option to do just the clients with the source package.
The basic procedure is:

make -C src/bin install
make -C src/interfaces install
make -C doc install

See the admin documentation for more details on installation.

Like what? I do all my development on HPUX 10.20, and things work
just fine for me.
