v2.5 issues airflow Hey team 😄 I just tried to upgrade to v2.5 of meltano, and am getting this airflow error when trying to build:
Copy code

      Error: pg_config executable not found.
      
      pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source.  Please add the directory
      containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the
      option:
      
          python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
      
      or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.
      
      If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI
      'psycopg2-binary' package instead.
      
      For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at
      <<https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html>>).

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.

Any thoughts?

You'll need to either install
libpq-dev
(a system package, not a Python package), or update the dependencies of the package you're trying to install to use the
psycopg2-binary
Python package instead of
psycopg2
.

This means, if I'm running in docker, I'd need to install libpq-dev, I would need to run `
Copy code
sudo apt-get -y install libpq-dev
in my container?
w
Yes.
s
Would I have to run this command everytime, or only once?
w
libpq-dev
needs to be installed on the system where you want to use the
psycopg2
Python package. Putting the command in your
Dockerfile
should work.
s
Ok awesome, thanks!
w
Do you know which tap/target you're using is depending on
psycopg2
instead of
psycopg2-binary
? It'd be good for us to update it to use
psycopg2-binary
.
s
Ah wait I may have my answer, I had psycopg2 (and not the bin) in my path
It wokrs! Thanks @Will Da Silva (Arch) 😄
