Looks like this configure error:

./configure: line 6677: cd: /usr/include/postgresql/pgsql: No such file or directory
overriding pgincludedir with /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/slony1-1.2.10/work/slony1-1.2.10
overriding pgincludeserverdir with /usr/include/postgresql/server

leads to these errors later:

xxid.c: In function ‘_Slony_I_getMinXid’:
xxid.c:236: error: ‘SerializableSnapshot’ undeclared (first use in this function)
xxid.c:236: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
xxid.c:236: error: for each function it appears in.)
xxid.c: In function ‘_Slony_I_getMaxXid’:

Try replacing the econf arguments with just: --with-pgconfigdir=/usr/lib/postgresql/bin

`emerge --sync` and re-emerge postgres packages

The same error.

[Comment 8 Patrick Lauer 2011-04-11 10:05:19 UTC]

eselect postgresql  - the new version (1.0.x) changed things around a bit, so most likely you don't have a valid active slot of postgresql set.

I've hit the same issue and was able to resolve it by re-setting it.

Reopen if that doesn't fix it.
