it is ok if i uninstall the current version of postgres 8.0.0
which i have done.
i am trying to install the rpms for 8.1.4 FC(4)
Where can i find the instaructions to download the rpms.
what i did was as follows,
1. instal the rpm postgresql-libs-8.1.4-1PGDG.i686.rpm
2. install the rpm postgresql-libs-8.1.4-1PGDG.i686.rpm
however this step was giving errors, some dependency errors
3. install the rpm postgresql-server-8.1.4-1PGDG.i686.rpm
is this not the way, i used to follw the above three steps to install 8.0.0 on my m/c.
thanks,
regards

When I upgraded my system, I upgraded both PostgreSQL and libPQ to version 8.1.4. Before you
decide on anything be sure to read the 8.1 manual in the section regarding upgrading.
