Update README.md #15

Closed philonor closed 6 years ago

philonor commented 7 years ago

Add info about required dev tools to build on unix.

eulerto commented 7 years ago

@philonor I agree that mention dependencies helps to clarify the build process, however, give the wrong instruction (package name is wrong -- postgresql-server-dev-x.x and postgresql-server-dev-all is not required for a manual build) and also doesn't say what OS you're referring are worse than omitting such information. If you want to improve the README, fix those problems and also mention another popular OSes (such as Red Hat-like and FreeBSD).

philonor commented 7 years ago

You are right about mentioning the exact OS I'm referring to (Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS), but installing postgresql-server-dev-all actually fixed failing make on Ubuntu.

eulerto commented 7 years ago

@philonor it fixes because postgresql-server-dev-x.x is also installed (as a dependency).
