But I concur with the suggestions to install RPMs built by someone else, instead. In a Red Hat system it's just a lot easier to manage software that's packaged that way than to deal with "loose" software. If you really feel a need to do it yourself, why don't you download Devrim's SRPMs and build RPMs from those? You could study the spec files to see what you missed while trying to do it by hand. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
