Hi,
You need to tell the compiler where the include files and libraries are.
Try this command:
gcc -I /usr/include/pgsql -L /usr/lib/pgsql -lpq -o ctest ctest.c
The -I option says that the include files are located at
/usr/include/pgsql, the -L says that the library can be found at
/usr/lib/pgsql and the -lpq option shows that you're using the pq
library. This is just an example, the actual paths in your system can be
different.
Also, you need to check the contents of the /etc/ld.so.conf file. Add a
line with the path to the library if it isn't already there. Remember to
run, as root, the command /sbin/ldconfig if you change that file.
