Michael,
this is to do with the fact that I recently updated
the configure script that ships with all extensions
to the latest version from GRASS cvs.
Unfortunately, this script obviously fails if certain
* optional * dependencies are not met.
I think rather than me trying to fix this in the extension
configure scripts, we should fix it for the global
GRASS cvs configure script. I don't think configuring
should fail for anything optional, including postgresql.
Best,
Benjamin

Benjamin,
I tried to install your latest advanced viewshed analysis (downloaded yesterday) on my Mac using the current CVS GEM. It hit a rather odd error, complaining about PostgreSQL (kind of irrelevant for the package). I do have pg, but have the Mac package rather than the Unix one, so it’s installed in a different place. I’m also using Lorenzo Moretti’s binaries, which are compiled against a standard pg installation. Here is the error I get:
[lots of stuff that went right – snip snip ...]
checking whether to use PostgreSQL... yes
checking for location of PostgreSQL includes...
checking for libpq-fe.h... no
configure: error: *** Unable to locate PostgreSQL includes.ERROR: system configuration failed.

Please remove manually.
DONE.
Program exited with an error (code -3). Operation aborted.Any thoughts?
Michael
