RPMs for the security bugfix release 7.2.2 are available now for your happy
downloading in two forms and versions on ftp.postgresql.org. You may have to
wait on mirror propagation, which could take a few hours.
For those who want it as close to the previous release as possible, I have
uploaded the binaries I built the other day for the 0.1PGDG prerelease --
they are identical in packaging to the last 7.2.1 PGDG RPM's I released.
For those who want a more serviceable contrib packaging, I have finally
applied Peter Eisentraut's patch for the contrib tree building. Also, due to
the difficulty usually found when upgrading postgresql from a previous MAJOR
version, this version's server subpackage Conflicts with server subpackages
of release 7.1.3 and earlier. This is a prelude to the complete removal of
the broken semifunctional upgrade capability -- you have been warned, and you
will have to either override the upgrade with rpm --nodeps or rpm -e the
previous postgresql-server FIRST, after dumping your data.
Download the 7.2.2-1PGDG release for the latter, 7.2.2-0.1PGDG release for the
former.
Both are available at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v7.2.2/RPMS/redhat-7.3
