How to install HTTP extension on PGadmin

I'm attempting to add the HTTP extension to my pgadmin gui however when I run CREATE EXTENSION http I get ERROR: could not open extension control file "/usr/share/postgresql/14/extension/http.control": No such file or directory

The installation section on the readme is not very clear to me

In Windows, you can use DBeaver, which gives you a nice UI and good feedback. Double-click on your database, go to the Extensions tab, and click the Create New Extension button at the bottom. It takes care of permissions and authentication.

There is no out of the box support for http in PostgreSQL; I installed the http extension following these instructions: If you are in linux: apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-16 (or your postgresql version) apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev git clone https://github.com/pramsey/pgsql-http.git cd pgsql-http/ make make install

If you are in windows, go to http://www.postgresonline.com/journal/archives/371-http-extension.html and follow instructions

Then in a postgresql console or in pgAdmin, execute: CREATE EXTENSION http;

This is the repository addres in github: https://github.com/pramsey/pgsql-http.git

Hope this helps!
