The gcc point is valid, but AFAIK the PGDG RPMs are using the same build options as the Red Hat RPMs. There are various small differences in the specfiles and auxiliary files that we should try to converge on, but I don't see any fundamental incompatibilities. (In case you're not totally clear on the situation: the Red Hat/Fedora RPMs are my fault, the PGDG ones are Devrim's ;-) We are not talking about some remote unaccountable sources here.) regards, tom lane
