Installing Libraries on remote pc
I have an application that can log it's results to a postgres database. I am
unable to install PostgreSQL on the remote OPC so I want to have it log its
results to one of the other PostgreSQL servers I have.
Is it possible to just install the libpq library without having to install
the full PostgreSQL, as I doubt there would be enough disk space to even
unpack the tarball.

Yes, the client and server sides are completely separate. On debian for
example, the client and server are different, independant package.
Not sure how you do it from the tarball though. I imagine you would have to
compile it elsewhere...

from $PSQL_DOC_SOMEWHERE_THERE/install-procedure.html (for 7.1.3):
===
Client-only installation. If you want to install only the client
applications and interface libraries, then you can use these commands:
gmake -C src/bin install
gmake -C src/interfaces install
gmake -C doc install
To undo the installation use the command gmake uninstall. However,
this will not remove the Perl and Python interfaces and it will not
remove any directories.
===
so it looks like you would have to compile the whole thing, then install
just what you need.
best regards
