The least painful route for a user of an RPM build would be to grab the

Rebuilding RPMs from source has its own challenges, if they're not
already using a packaged build that may not necessarily be the easiest
way; hard to say. One thing I didn't remember to suggest last night:
you can always find out how your existing PostgreSQL was built using
pg_config ; look at the CONFIGURE = line and it will show you what
parameters were passed to the "./configure" step of the build the last
time. If you're not sure exactly how the old one was built, this can
help you out.
