The PostgreSQL 12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20) sources can be obtained from the
download section of our
website: https://www.postgresql.org/download/. You
should get a file named postgresql-12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20).tar.gz
or postgresql-12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20).tar.bz2. After
you have obtained the file, unpack it:
gunzip postgresql-12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20).tar.gztar xf postgresql-12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20).tar
(Use bunzip2 instead of gunzip if you
have the .bz2 file.)
This will create a directory
postgresql-12.20 (2ndQPG 12.20r1.1.20) under the current directory
with the PostgreSQL sources.
Change into that directory for the rest
of the installation procedure.
You can also get the source directly from the version control repository, see Appendix I.
