Running sudo pgxn install quantile produces

Hi, I am also getting this error on ubuntu server 16.4

I found this solution fixed a similar issue for me:

https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/2864

before_script:

• sudo apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-all
• sudo apt-get install postgresql-common

@simg Doesn't work for me, where system is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
