Pardon a dumb question. Installing Postgres 7.x on FC4-6, I would install a
large set of RPMs, these I think:
postgresql
postgresql-contrib
postgresql-devel
postgresql-jdbc
postgresql-libs
postgresql-python
postgresql-server
I then had everything I need to run postgres and access it from Java and Python
(through the pygresql driver).
I'm now trying to move to 8.3.x on Fedora 9. Using pgdg-83-fedora.repo, yum
finds two RPMs, postgresql-8.3.3-1PGDG.f9.i386 and
postgresql-libs-8.3.3-1PGDG.f9.i386. I checked postgresql.org, but the fedora 9
directories are empty, (unlike the f7 and f8 directories).
I know that the JDBC driver is a separate project, but I'm having trouble
getting python access to work. I downloaded PyGreSQL-3.8.tgz, but cannot
install it because it relies on pg_config, which is not present the the 8.3.3
RPMs I installed.
Am I just on the wrong path here, starting with the postgresql and
postgresql-libs RPMs?
