Notes on Ubuntu, Debian or other Debian-based Builds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Debian packages of PostgreSQL put ``pg_config`` into the development package
called ``postgresql-server-dev-$version``.
When building repmgr against a Debian packages build, you may discover that some
development packages are needed as well. You will need the following development
packages installed::
sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev libpam-dev libedit-dev
If you build and install repmgr manually it will not be on the system path. The
binaries will be installed in /usr/lib/postgresql/$version/bin/ which is not on
the default path. The reason behind this is that Ubuntu/Debian systems manage
multiple installed versions of PostgreSQL on the same system through a wrapper
called pg_wrapper and repmgr is not (yet) known to this wrapper.
You can solve this in many different ways, the most Debian like is to make an
alternate for repmgr and repmgrd::
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/repmgr repmgr /usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/repmgr 10
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/repmgrd repmgrd /usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/repmgrd 10
Confirm software was built correctly
