It does not ,rpm puts the staff in /var/lib

Well, this is what i eventually did ,it was just more convinient to
wget the rpms ,type rpm -Uhv postgres*rpm and then replace 2 files.
(It took some work to recall what i have changed in the config
files,thought)
That was simpler then rpm2cpio etc... as i thought at the beginning.
The server works fine by now,hope this XLogWrite thing will not come
back .
Thanks for the help.
