+    The default installation no longer compiles the PostgreSQL module that

+    are upgrading an older database or want to run the
+    [legacy tokenizer](../customize/Tokenizers.md#legacy-tokenizer) for
+    some other reason, you need to enable the PostgreSQL module via
+    cmake: `cmake -DBUILD_MODULE=on ../Nominatim`. To compile the module
+    you need to have the server development headers for PostgreSQL installed.
+    On Ubuntu/Debian run: `sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-<postgresql version>`
