All it does is install files allowing loading the language into the server as extension; Why do you want the language without the server ? [pryzbyj@database ~]$ rpm -ql postgresql10-plpython /usr/pgsql-10/lib/plpython2.so /usr/pgsql-10/share/extension/plpython2u--1.0.sql /usr/pgsql-10/share/extension/plpython2u--unpackaged--1.0.sql /usr/pgsql-10/share/extension/plpython2u.control [...] /usr/pgsql-10/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/plpython-10.mo [...] But anyway, is it a problem ? You could let it install the server binaries to /usr/pgsql-10 and then ignore them. And actually I believe RH has the ability for an admin to "prune" paths after package installation (The usual example is /usr/share/doc). You could do that if you want. Or if you just want to look at the files, you can use rpm2cpio ./rpm |cpio -i --make Or you can install it on a VM. Justin
