Hi Perry,

Thanks for your response. There is no "configure" in
/usr/src/postgresql-7.4-1 either. see the script below.

***************************************************
czhou at CONSTITUTION /usr/src/postgresql-7.4-1
$ pwd
/usr/src/postgresql-7.4-1

czhou at CONSTITUTION /usr/src/postgresql-7.4-1
$ ls
contrib

czhou at CONSTITUTION /usr/src/postgresql-7.4-1
$ ./configure
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
