[Nagiosplug-help] PostgreSQL plug-in

[Tony Heal]

I am trying to compile the pgsql plugin and when I run ./configure the
config.log reads:

configure:8878: WARNING: Skipping PostgreSQL plugin (check_pgsql)
configure:8880: WARNING: LIBS="-lcrypt " CPPFLAGS=""
configure:8882: WARNING: install PostgreSQL libs to compile this plugin (see
REQUIREMENTS).

REQUIREMENTS reads:
check_pqsql:
        - Requires the PostgreSQL libraries available from
          http://www.postgresql.org

There are several libraries available for PostgreSQL and I have tried to
install those that I thought were appropriate, but I still get the same
error message and check_pgsql does not build.

What libraries are required?
