I started following https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.2/_downloads/71f100f4398dbdc9b2d388ffdc251da2/README_python.txt but decide to use the version with venv instead at https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.2/developers/classic-dev-env.html#run-the-dataverse-software-installer-script

However, there's an error:

[dataverse@ip-172-31-8-57 6.2]$ python3 --version

    Error: pg_config executable not found.
    
    pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source.  Please add the directory
    containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the
    option:
    
        python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
    
    or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.
    
    If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI
    'psycopg2-binary' package instead.
    
    For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at
    <https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html>).

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11618898/pg-config-executable-not-found says I should be able to get it from the postgresql-devel package, but:

Oh. The python3-psycopg2 RPM is already installed. Maybe I'm all set?
