[Pypgsql-users] PyPgSQL 2.3 build problems under Windows

[Pinchart, L. <Pin...@PC...>]

Hi everybody,

I'm having problems with PyPqSQL 2.3 under Windows. I have PostgreSQL 7.3.2
installed (in Cygwin), and I'm trying to build PyPgSQL.

I tried to run setup.py using a Windows version of Python (2.2.2) in a
Windows command shell. After unpacking PostgreSQL in ../postgresql, it
failed at the linker stage, complaining about a missing pq.lib.

I then tried to compile PostgreSQL 7.3.2 (in Cygwin), but no pq.lib is
generated by the build process.

I can build PyPgSQL in Cygwin, but I then get a DLL that depends on
cygwin1.dll. I would like to get the same result as the binary PyPgSQL
package (libpq.pyd that doesn't depend on Cygwin).

Thanks in advance for all the help you can provide.
