Remove PostgreSQL-libs-8.0.2 rpm first... Or upgrade it to 8.0.3...

Devrim,

Thank you so much for replying.

Actually, I do not have postgresql-libs v8.0.2 installed:

[gzelesnik@linus downloads]$ rpm -qa | grep postgres
rh-postgresql-devel-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-tcl-7.3.6-7
postgresql-docs-8.0.3-1PGDG
rh-postgresql-pl-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-libs-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-test-7.3.6-7
postgresql-jdbc-8.0.3-1PGDG
rh-postgresql-python-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-contrib-7.3.6-7
rh-postgresql-server-7.3.6-7
postgresql-odbc-7.3-3

------

And when I try to upgrade postgresql-libs v7.3.6-7 to v8.0.3, I get the
following conflicts:

[gzelesnik] rpm -Uv postgresql-libs-8.0.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        libecpg.so.4 is needed by postgresql-libs-8.0.3-1PGDG

        postgresql-libs = 7.3.6 is needed by (installed)
rh-postgresql-devel-7.3.6-7
    Suggested resolutions:
        rh-postgresql-libs-7.3.6-7.i386.rpm

----

The conflict seems to be embedded in the set of packages for v8.0.3, and
the compat-postgresql-libs-3-3PGDG.rpm package doesn't seem to like
trying to upgrade from 7.3.6.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Greg

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You have a libs version which is smaller than 8.0.3

Please don't use rpm -Uvh while upgrading PostgreSQL in major version
upgrades. Take a dump and backup, remove the existing RPMs and install new
ones.

Then you'll have no trouble.
