Message-ID: <18816-5688b740b9a77d0b@postgresql.org> (raw)
The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 18816
Logged by: David Gilman
Email address: davidgilman1@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 16.7
Operating system: n/a
Description:
The PostgreSQL 16 branch's configure script checks to see if perl 5.14+ is
installed (see config/perl.m4) but there is no comment in the documentation
that perl 5.14+ is required in the postgresql16 docs like there is in the
postgresql17 docs. See doc pages:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/install-requirements.htmlhttps://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/install-requirements.html
