Subject: Question on inconsistency between PGDG deb "server-dev" and rpm “devel" packages regarding “libpgfeutils.a"
Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2025 13:15:41 +0530
Message-ID: <CAGEzHssom5pNEUM9ack_1bK_6tRHycdAAeMQRwVNdJKWkMbtAw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I noticed a small inconsistency between the PGDG server-dev package for
Debian-based distributions
(postgresql-server-dev-<version>) and devel package for RHEL-based
distributions
(postgresql<version>-devel) and I wanted to check if this is intentional.
On Debian-based systems, the postgresql-server-dev package includes the
static library *libpgfeutils.a*,
whereas the corresponding RPM package (postgresql<version>-devel) does not
include this library.
I wanted to understand whether this difference is by design.
If so, could someone please share the reasoning behind excluding
*libpgfeutils.a* from the RPM packaging?
It would help clarify whether this is something downstream packagers should
align with or handle separately.
Thanks for your time and for all the great work that goes into maintaining
the PGDG repositories.
Best Regards,
