I'll have to try that again on a clean box.


I think what -I- ran into was that there was no compat-3 in the public=20
repositories, just compat-4... this was about a month ago.  devrim=20
indicated he was going to upload compat-3, and showed me where to find=20
it, but I'd already installed compat-4, so -3 refused to install.

on the grounds that there are undoutablly software out there which WAS=20
linked with libpq.so.4, it seems to me there should just be one=20
compat-postgresql-libs RPM which provides both 3 and 4 and coexists with=20
current 8.2.3 rpms.
