Uh, sorry. You should upgrade all RPMs at once. If the packages are
split the same way (meaning, all packages have the same name) the
simplest way should be to do
rpm -F postgresql*
(this will update the currently installed packages).
If not, the easiest is to uninstall
rpm -e postgresql postgresql-server
and then install the new version
rpm -i postgresql-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm postgresql-server-7.2.1-blah
There are other games you can play with RPM dependencies, but I will
leave that for you to investigate.
