No. I'm not trying to install 9.2

Welcome to the way that Redhat releases an OS and keeps everything at 
the same "version number" for the life of the OS. They backport all 
security patches, but the version stays the same. I have no choice in 
the version or the packaged libraries that Redhat provide.

Since the Redhat postgresql-libs package contains the extra libraries it 
is likely that some other tool in the Redhat package set will depend on 
these libraries and will break.

Evan.
