Since version 1.0.8 psycopg requires some extra headers (pg_type.h) from PostgreSQL that are not installed by postgresql port (they are installed by issuing make install-all-header). Because of this py-psycopg port is broken unless user will install additional headers. There are two possible solutions: one is to include pg_type.h and related stuff with base postgresql port. Another is to create port that will install extra postgresql headers in a mozilla-headers fashion. Latter seems to be cleaner way to deal with this. I'm ready to volunteer to work on the -headers port. Any suggestions? Regards, Alex. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
