Hi Christian,

Thanks for you reply. After looking at your steps, I did a bit research as
well. As you said, there is a problem related to the "libreadline.dylib".

However, in addition to that, I found something else interesting - something
actually solves my installation problem without installing Fink, (but the
"could not save history to file .../.psql_history" error still exists). Just
want to share the solutions with everyone in case you are in the same
situation:

su
ranlib /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.a

After that, "make" will run just fine!

Although I fixed my problem, i still don't understand how this helped me?
Could anyone tell me...?


Thanks again!

Mark
