@intgr: Please Update to 1.16.0beta2, thx!

Updated to 1.16.0beta1

Yes, you can *run* pgAdmin without a local PostgreSQL server installation, but building it requires server headers, such as server/parser/kwlist.h for the list of reserved keywords.

for pgadmin3, it shouldn't even require a postgresql installation since it should be usabale to admin servers on other computers, no?

I will try upgrading to 9.1 with the AUR package.

Did you have any luck with upgrade to 9.1.0?

Updated to 1.14.0 release

@99Percent: Actually I'm not sure why it fails for you. On my computer, it prefers the /usr/local/pgsql installation if it exists (I have git version there) and builds successfully. Perhaps it's a bug in 9.1beta3

In any case, upgrading 9.1beta3 -> 9.1.0 (the version in postgresql-testing) should work with no problems. You don't need to dump/restore or anything

postgres-libs is installed and it passed the dependency check of this package

Maybe its because I downloaded and compiled postgresql (9.1beta3) instead of installing it as a package?

Will I run into potentially serious problems if I try to install the postgres-testing AUR package on top of the one I manually compiled and installed?

@99Percent: The 'postgresql-libs' dependency is there for a reason. Do you have that installed?

Or you might want to try the postgresql-testing AUR package, which tracks latest PostgreSQL alpha, beta and rc releases: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31562

(Unfortunately PostgreSQL developers have discontinued alpha releases for the 9.2 cycle)

I now get:

checking PostgreSQL in /usr/local/pgsql... failed
configure: error: you must specify a valid PostgreSQL 8.4+ installation with --with -pgsql=DIR

And I do have postgresql (9.1beta3) installed on /usr/local/pgsql

How to fix?

Updated to 1.14.0rc1, sorry about the delay.

99Percent, are you still getting that error?

I had to change:
./configure --prefix=/usr
to
./configure --with-pgsql=/usr
but I still get this error:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -DDATA_DIR=\"/usr/local/pgadmin3/share/pgadmin3/\" -I../pgadmin/include -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/postgresql -DHAVE_CONNINFO_PARSE -I/usr/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 -I/usr/include/wx-2.8 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILES -D__WXGTK__ -DEMBED_XRC -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I/usr/include/libxml2 -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -MT keywords.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/keywords.Tpo -c -o keywords.o `test -f './db/keywords.c' || echo './'`./db/keywords.c
./db/keywords.c:33:34: fatal error: server/parser/kwlist.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

The main reason I want to run this version is that I get a sudden closing of pgadmin3 when I try to run the query tool (archlinux 64) I have searched everywhere and I cannot find the solution.
