Looks like the (script part of the RPM) is badly built;
it passes a temporary file to the dynamic linker,
which only accepts directories of shared libraries
as arguments.

You might want to report it on the pgsql-bugs list ,
making sure to mention where you got the RPMs from.

Naah - worst case scenario, you can just add the line

'usr/local/pgsql/lib' to the end of ld.so.conf and run ldconfig
as root.
[Change the path to wherever your *.so files were installed.]

But chances are it hasn't broken anything.
