Re: PostgreSQL 7.1 Linux Installation

Dear Mirko,

Thanks for the reply. I have now PostgreSQL7.1 installed, but need to
re-install  package "php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-9.i386.rpm". The installation
procedure reports me the following:

error: failed dependencies:
        libpq.so.2.1 is needed by php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-9

And I have found the following files to exist on our system:

[root@atlas PostgreSQL]# find /usr -name "libpq.so.*"
/usr/lib/libpq.so.2
/usr/lib/libpq.so.2.0
/usr/lib/libpq.so.2.1

Should I make some sort of symlink or perhaps force installation of
php-pgsql package? Can anybody give me some clue of how to procceed?

TIA,
Paulo Parola
