我使用的是Ruby on Rails 3.1预版本。我喜欢使用PostgreSQL,但问题是安装pg gem。它给了我以下错误:

$ gem install pg
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing pg:
    ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

我怎么解决这个问题?


当前回答

对于AltLinux,是postgresqlx包。X-devel(在我的例子中是postgresql9.5-devel)必须安装:

apt-get install postgresql9.5-devel

其他回答

在MacOS M1上解决:

brew install libpq

然后我输入我的路径

echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/libpq/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

And:

gem install pg

在Fedora 32上,我通过专门安装libpq5-devel解决了同样的问题。

如果你从官方存储库安装postgresql,你会有几个版本都不能解决这个问题,所以这真的是一个尝试它需要哪个版本的问题。

在Arch Linux上,你需要安装postgresql-libs:

sudo pacman -Syu postgresql-libs

只有卸载(sudo apt-get purge) libpq-dev并重新安装它才对我有用。

Mac用户使用Postgres的正确答案。应用程序是根据该包提供的libpq构建的。例如,对于9.4版本(撰写本文时的最新版本),您所需要的是:

export CONFIGURE_ARGS="with-pg-include=/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.4/include"
gem install pg

这将使你的pg gem与你安装的PostgreSQL版本保持同步。在这种情况下,安装Homebrew软件是一种浪费。
