Default Re: pg_config missing in install

I have postgresSQL version 7.4.6 installed on my
debian box.

But I see that some of the binaries are missing...
Like I see pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore and pg_wrapper. But
can't see the rest.

My DBD:Pg install is failing since it doesn't find pg_config.
Any ideas ?

thanks
Sukhdeep

I'm running the Debian stable package which is quite old, version 7.2.1
(it's a lightweight website) and looking around my directories I find
links is /usr/bin named pg_dump, pg_restore, and pg_config which all
point to pg_wrapper in the same directory. Maybe it's as simple as your
symbolic link missing?

The man page for pg_wrapper (written by our own Oliver Elphick) says it's
not to be run by itself, but only as a link to names which correspond to
Postgresql programs in /usr/lib/postgres/bin.

Hope this helps....
