Note that you can in theory install multiple versions of the client libraries. People have posted here on the list about setting up aliases to switch between versions. $ pg7.4 $ psql ... runs psql version 7.4 .. $ pg8.1 $ psql ... runs psql version 8.1 ... That way, if version skew is bothering you, you can jump out and use the matching client version for the best results...
