@Markus.N, I have the same problem not only with PG15 but also with PG16.

On Arch:
# set datestyle to postgres;
SET

# set timezone to 'Europe/Paris';
SET

# SELECT DATE_TRUNC('MILLENNIUM', DATE '1970-03-20');
          date_trunc

# set timezone to 'PST8PDT';
SET

# SELECT DATE_TRUNC('MILLENNIUM', DATE '1970-03-20');
          date_trunc

You may use makepg --nocheck to by-pass the tests.

I can't build the current version. The regression tests fail (left out all that was ok):

Unfortunately, I can't go on with the currently installed version of the package due to changed libs in the base system.

Release 2. Fixes xml regression test.

DimaCit commented on 2024-07-20 16:16 (UTC)

@mrechte I had the same issue as msrd0. The problem went away after I downgraded the package libxml2 to version 2.12.7.

I ran into the same build problem. Seems to be an occasional problem with libxml. Since I don't use the XML functionality, I removed the --with-libxml and --with-libxslt flags, and the tests ran without errors.

Warning: Upon reinstallation, the package suggested a dump-and-restore, possibly because of the removed functionality. It's a dev system without valuable data, and the databases kept working, but on a production database, it's advisable to create a dump before installing the modified package and restore afterwards.

Incorporating this change might be problematic because of the functionality loss, but people who don't use XML in their databases and want to run the tests can remove the lines manually.

I have the same build error as @msrd0

mrechte commented on 2024-06-15 14:26 (UTC) (edited on 2024-06-15 14:27 (UTC) by mrechte)

@msrd0 I just recompiled. Tests passed OK. I cannot reproduce. You may use makepg --nocheck

The package fails to compile for me since the last update:

@hschletz thanks for reporting. I though I had already fixed the issue. This should be OK now.

As libraries are installed into a non-default path, applications linked against libpq won't find it unless the official postgresql-libs package is installed too. pgenv.sh has a line with LD_LIBRARY_PATH commented out, but that would work only for shells that source the script, but not system services. To enable the library globally, create a file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/postgresql15.conf containing:

/opt/postgresql15/lib

Then run "ldconfig".
