Обсуждение: RPM installation of 7.0.3

I've downloaded the various RPM files for version 7.0.3 (10 of them) so
I might upgrade the version (6.5.2) that is currently on my workstation
(Red Hat 6.1).  The old version has never been used for anything, so
there's no data to worry about.

When I issue the following command:

     rpm -Uvh postgresql-*

The following is displayed:

     postgresql
     ##################################################
     postgresql-devel
     ##################################################
     postgresql-jdbc
     ##################################################
     postgresql-odbc
     ##################################################
     postgresql-perl
     ##################################################
     postgresql-python
     ##################################################
     postgresql-server
     ##################################################
     /sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.95124
     (Not a directory), skipping
     /sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open 1 (No such file or
     directory), skipping
     postgresql-tcl
     ##################################################
     postgresql-test
     ##################################################
     postgresql-tk
     ##################################################

I'm concerned about the two warnings - are they something I need to
worry about?

Thanks in advance.

Looks like the (script part of the RPM) is badly built;
it passes a temporary file to the dynamic linker,
which only accepts directories of shared libraries
as arguments.

You might want to report it on the pgsql-bugs list ,
making sure to mention where you got the RPMs from.

Naah - worst case scenario, you can just add the line

'usr/local/pgsql/lib' to the end of ld.so.conf and run ldconfig
as root.
[Change the path to wherever your *.so files were installed.]

But chances are it hasn't broken anything.
