1) What has this to do with GRASS? It has very little to do with R,
either, appearing to be a PostgreSQL installation problem.
2) Did you install PostgreSQL from source, or install RPMS: if the
did you install _all_ the RPMs? I suspect you don't have the client
installed. On my system (installed from the sources under RH7.3)
libpq-fe.h is in /usr/local/pgsql/include.
3) Rdbi/Rdbi.PgSQL are not on CRAN and appear not to be supported, but

currently supported R interface to PostgreSQL would appear to be RODBC.

this header and make a link to it?
