[postgis-users] RHEL-8 configure: error: could not find libpq

[Regina Obe]

Maybe your PostgreSQL is not in system path for some reason.  That could
happen if you have multiple PostgreSQL installs.

Try running configure passing path to your pg config like so:

./configure --with-pgconfig= /usr/pgsql-12/bin/pg_config
