I've been told that our current SRPMs will not build on systems that old because the rpm spec files use features that didn't exist in rpm back then (nested %if was mentioned, and there may be some other issues). You could possibly hack the specfile until it works, but it'd likely be easier just to build from a source tarball. The traditional configure/make procedure should work fine. regards, tom lane
