I tryied also with .rpm downloaded from postgres official site but I get a lot of unresolved dependencies. So I ask if it exist a document that explain step by step the process to upgrade v. 8.1 to v. 8.2 under Fedora Core 6, a document for novices, as I am.
For what it's worth, I've always found it easier to compile from source than to try and grapple with packet managers, both under RedHat and Ubuntu, and I'm no Linux expert.... on Ubuntu in particular, apt-get seems to scatter files around the hard disk in all sorts of non-standard places.
The installation instructions in the docs are very comprehensive and easy to follow, and as long as you make sure that you have all the requirements (readline and zlib in particular) you should have no problem.
