   Thanking for responding.. You were very helpful with my install of v 7.0.3.
    Without your help I would have given up, last year.
     But I did not use your RPM..It would not install and you finally suggested
     " roll your own from the source." I did and v 7.0.3 was born on my
machines.
     As you are the maintainer of the RPMs I stand corrected, You would best
     Know the data dir trees for RPM but also V. 7.1.2 will not compile on
Caldera 2.3 only..

        But as it stands  I was able to successfully make and make install
PostgreSQL v. 7.1.2 on Caldera 2.4 and it now runs on one machine.
But I have three machines which I would not be able to tear down for
an upgrade from Caldera 2.3 to 2.4..
        I suspect Libc or GNU Make versions but I am not sure.
  I don't want to start down the wrong road and not get results.

Any help out there is much appreciated....
