Hi, I just downloaded the 8.1.1 rpms for FC4 from postgresql.org. It appears that removing the existing rpms will require also removing a number of dependencies. (That what Synaptics asserts...) Is it possible to use a "rpm -Uvh *" to overwrite the existing 8.1.0 rpms from postgresql.org? and not have to reload all of the other bits and pieces?
That should work just fine. You shouldn't need to dump/reload either, although I always do where possible.
Don't forget when 8.2 comes out and you want to upgrade you will NEED to pg_dump your data first and then restore it.
