*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary
libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may
need configuration options.

To see why this extension failed to compile, please check the mkmf.log which can be found here:
/shared/bundle/ruby/2.5.0/extensions/x86_64-linux/2.5.0/pg-0.18.4/mkmf.log
Tried following solutions but nothing worked
- Tried manual installation on production server
sudo gem install pg -v 0.18.4 - Can't find the 'libpq-fe.h header when trying to install pg gem
- Error while installing json gem 'mkmf.rb can't find header files for ruby'
