libpq creates symlinks for libpq-fe.h in /usr/include and in /usr/include/postgresql The file libpq-fe.h contains an include for "postgres_ext.h". However, no symlink for this file is created when libpq is installed. Therefore any package attempting to compile against /usr/include/libpq-fe.h or /usr/include/postgresql/libpq-fe.h fail. Working fix: ln -s /usr/include/postgresql/libpq-3/server/postgres_ext.h /usr/include/postgres_ext.h ln -s /usr/include/postgresql/libpq-3/server/postgres_ext.h /usr/include/postgresql/postgres_ext.h I discovered this, for instance, when attempting to emerge bacula with postgresql support. Any application which calls "pg_config --includedir" to locate header files should not have this problem.

I'm sorry, but I can't reproduce it.
