Error - No package 'libgda-postgres-5.0' found
System details: git master around November 2011 on Fedora 16
Stage: Configure
configure: error: Package requirements were not met: No package 'libgda-postgres-5.0' found
Reason: The missing file libgda-postgres-5.0.pc is provided by libgda which you have probably already compiled on your way (as libgda is required by glom). libgda automatically checked which database providers are installed on your system - Postgres is not, hence libgda did not build this file.
Solution: First install the missing postgresql package (postgresql) on your system. Then (re)compile libgda in jhbuild. This should provide the lines
checking for pg_config... /usr/bin/pg_config
and at the end also
Configuration summary for version 5.0.1 Compiled providers: PostgreSQL = yes
