[OSM-dev] How to compile osm2pgsql without persistent node cache?

[Kai Krueger]

Hi,

on what platform are you trying to compile osm2pgsl?

Some systems that don't have lseek64 seem to use a 64bit off_t pointer 
anyway. So the normal lseek is fine for large files. I have added a 
compile check for this condition a couple of days ago [1].

If your system doesn't support large files at all, then one would indeed 
have to disable the compilation of the persistent node cache. This 
currently isn't possible, but shouldn't be difficult to add.
