[postgis-users] compiling problems - requires PostgreSQL, but it is installed

[Kenton Williams]

Hello,

I'm trying to compile PostGIS on PCLinuxOS.  I have successfully 
compiled and installed PostgreSQL and it is operating fine.  I have 
obtained the PostGIS source and followed the instructions untarring it 
into the PostgreSQL source code /contrib directory, but I cannot even 
get ./configure to complete.  I get the error message stating that 
PostgreSQL is required. 

I'm a little new to all this, so perhaps someone could advise me on what 
I'm doing wrong?  It would seem that the PDF documentation may be a 
little older than the versions of PostgreSQL and PostGIS that are 
available.  Thanks in advance!
