Hi miqbal,

I was just at this place in the installation yesterday. I think that
$POSTGRES_INCLUDE is a different thing than $ENV{POSTGRES_INCLUDE}.
If you want to set the variables in the Makefile.PL script, you
probably want to remove or comment out the next lines of the script:

>>if ((!$ENV{POSTGRES_INCLUDE} or !$ENV{POSTGRES_LIB}) and
>>!$ENV{POSTGRES_HOME}) {
>> die "please set environment variables POSTGRES_INCLUDE and
>>POSTGRES_LIB !\n";
>>} elsif ((!$ENV{POSTGRES_INCLUDE} or !$ENV{POSTGRES_LIB}) and
>>$ENV{POSTGRES_HOME}) {
>> $POSTGRES_INCLUDE = "$ENV{POSTGRES_HOME}/include";
>> $POSTGRES_LIB = "$ENV{POSTGRES_HOME}/lib";
>>} else {
>> $POSTGRES_INCLUDE = "$ENV{POSTGRES_INCLUDE}";
>> $POSTGRES_LIB = "$ENV{POSTGRES_LIB}";
}

(I have never before seen an install that wants you to set
environment variables instead of editing a script, but I am very very
new.)
