Comment (by robe):

 I'm wondering if this is a pathing issue.

 One thing I noticed comparing debbie's postgresql autoconf build verses
 the postgresql meson built is that:

 the autoconf build seems to use ../build-aux/install-sh

 Where as the meson build uses
 var/lib/jenkins/workspace/pg/rel/pg17w64/lib/x86_64-linux-
 gnu/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/../../config/install-sh


 So the final make install for meson built fails cause it doesn't have pgxs
 any more trying to go by  ../../config/install-sh which probably doesn't
 exist.

 So I'm thinking this might work if doing an out of tree build.  I'm dong
 in tree for both.  Perhaps that is why packagers aren't complaining that
 they are doing all out of tree builds.

 Will test out of tree next.
