Lack of installation documentation

I have unfortunately been unable to find any documentation on how to build/install this. If someone could rectify this, even if it's just 5 lines in the README, that'd be great.

Thanks for raising this @tnelson-doghouse

You're right, it's very thin on the ground, sorry about that. I'll get something added!

Other thoughts:

  • It'd be cool if the installation worked with the Postgres Package manager (see https://github.com/petere/pex ).
  • Note that this would also involve getting a 5-line config file added to https://github.com/petere/pex-packages .
  • To make it work with pex, it would have to be compilable by the 10 or so lines following https://github.com/petere/pex/blob/04bf747cd97e8c05167891e8b4c639f0735c6216/pex#L737 (ie. basically ./configure && make all && make install, but more complex)

May not be relevant, but hope this helps at some point.
