Reg: Installation problems in psycopg2

 Hi all,
    I am trying to install psycopg2 in my windows machine for connecting
with the PostgreSQL server.
    Since there is no binary executable*, I  am trying to build my own - and
I am facing this issue.

C:\MinGW\bin\..\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe:
cannot find -lpq
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

     After a little bit of googling, I found that this can be solved by
-L<directory name> while linking - but I am not specifically linking the
code. Rather, I am installing by doing the following -
     python.exe setup.py build
     python.exe setup.py install

    So, I cannot find a place to include the -L option too.
    Can somebody help me on this? I have been investigating this for the
last 4 days - and now I cannot see any further way out.
Regards,
Raj
*p.s ->  I did find one binary in
http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/win-psycopg/index.html#Ver...<http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/win-psycopg/index.html#Version2>.

But the licensing is GPL and I wont be able to use it (I am doing
coding for proprietary systems)
