This is getting more strange all the time. I grabbed the 7.0.3-2 rpms and
tried to install them. Here's what I get:
[root@salmo rshepard]# rpm -ivh postgresql-server-7.0.3-2.i386.rpm
file /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql from install of postgresql-server-7.0.3-2
conflicts with file from package postgresql-server-6.5.3-1
file /usr/bin/initdb from install of postgresql-server-7.0.3-2 conflicts
with file from package postgresql-server-6.5.3-1
file /usr/bin/initlocation from install of postgresql-server-7.0.3-2

There is no /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql, nor any of the files in /usr/bin.
I specifically removed them. Something, somewhere, has a record that 6.5.3-1
is installed, and I don't know where to look for it.
Once getting past this mess, I assume that the install sequence is
postgresql, postgresql-server, then the others I want (-python, -test, -tk,
-devel). Yes?
How strange! I'm sure there's a simple answer that I cannot see.
