  <title>Description</title>
  <para>
   The <application>pg_config</application> utility prints configuration parameters
   of the currently installed version of <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>. It is
   intended, for example, to be used by software packages that want to interface
   to <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> to facilitate finding the required header files
   and libraries.
  </para>

     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>

    <varlistentry>
     <term><option>--localedir</option></term>
     <listitem>

       Print the options that were given to the <filename>configure</filename>
       script when <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> was configured for building.
       This can be used to reproduce the identical configuration, or
       to find out with what options a binary package was built. (Note
       however that binary packages often contain vendor-specific custom

      <para>
       Print the value of the <varname>CFLAGS_SL</varname> variable that was used for building

      <para>
       Print the value of the <varname>LDFLAGS_EX</varname> variable that was used for building
       <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>.  This shows linker switches
       used for building executables only.

   If more than one option is given, the information is printed in that order,

  <para>
   The options <option>--docdir</option>, <option>--pkgincludedir</option>,
   <option>--localedir</option>, <option>--mandir</option>,
   <option>--sharedir</option>, <option>--sysconfdir</option>,

   <option>--cflags</option>, <option>--cflags_sl</option>,
   <option>--ldflags</option>, <option>--ldflags_sl</option>,
   and <option>--libs</option> were added in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 8.1.
   The option <option>--htmldir</option> was added in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 8.4.
   The option <option>--ldflags_ex</option> was added in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 9.0.

  <title>Example</title>

  <para>
   To reproduce the build configuration of the current PostgreSQL
   installation, run the following command:
<programlisting>
eval ./configure `pg_config --configure`
</programlisting>
   The output of <literal>pg_config --configure</literal> contains
   shell quotation marks so arguments with spaces are represented
   correctly.  Therefore, using <literal>eval</literal> is required
   for proper results.
