installing pgAgent when using postgres.app

[willpark01]

The instructions for installing pgAgent for pgAdmin seem to start out in a straightforward way, but quickly become complex when trying to install with postgres.app on a mac. Is there a straightforward way of installing pgAgent when using postgres.app without having to download the source code for pgagent from (https://www.pgadmin.org/download/pgagent-source-code/) installing a compiler, compiling, troubleshooting errors, and installing?

As it happens, I recently looked at pgAgent myself and wondered if there was a demand to ship it with Postgres.App, since you need a bit more dependencies to compile than the standard Command Line Tools Apple ships with XCode. But it should be possible to compile it against an installed Postgres.App, as with most PostgreSQL extensions.
