Hi,
 
I wanted to upgrade Postgre Server from 7.4 to 8.0.  I downloaded the rpm's and made the upgrade.
 
I use Suse Linux 9.1. Everything worked fine exept a single thing: YAST always says that libdb-4.1.so  is required by postgresql server( I think it requires the db4.1). I looked in the Berkeley DB Database Library package and I have libdb-4.2.so installed(db4.2.52). Also at the installation Yast told me this message. I just ignored it.
 
Now, the database runs well( from what I could notice in 30 minutes) but this error still worries me.
What is to be done? I readed on a forum that some files like libdb-4.2.so must be linked in libdb-4.1.so. I linked only this file but don't know if that is just the correct thing to do.
 
Please advice.
Thanks.
 
Andy.
