In case anyone besides me is interested, installing these packages
on CentOS4.2 seems to work. You can determine the correct mirror
to use from:
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhel-
es-4/
The rpm command that I used was:
rpm --upgrade --nodeps --hash -v <package url>
Packages in order of installation:
ftp://ftp3.ca.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhe
l-es-4/postgresql-libs-8.0.4-2PGDG.i686.rpm
ftp://ftp3.ca.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhe
l-es-4/postgresql-contrib-8.0.4-2PGDG.i686.rpm
ftp://ftp3.ca.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhe
l-es-4/postgresql-docs-8.0.4-2PGDG.i686.rpm

ftp://ftp3.ca.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhe
l-es-4/postgresql-server-8.0.4-2PGDG.i686.rpm
ftp://ftp3.ca.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v8.0.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhe
l-es-4/postgresql-test-8.0.4-2PGDG.i686.rpm
We are using 8.0.4 for development of a new application on a
dedicated development server so stability and data conversion
issues do not concern us for the moment. You are nonetheless
advised not to install 8.0.4 over a 7.4.8 installation without
first unloading all of the postgreSQL databases that you wish to
preserve under 8.0.4.
Regards,
Jim
