eh... no I installed once from source, because the package-manager failed to install the main application (PostgreSQL 8.3). Somehow it could not configure (after a few minutes the make command ended and an error popped up). Therefore I had to start from source, which did work. Today after getting this error message time after time I did start all over again and executed the ./configure-make-make install sequence again. Can that be harmful? Should I uninstall completely before doing that? Unless this is an unstable system, I did get it running! The end-application is connecting and working.
