Is telling the rpm maintainers to go fix their rpm's an option?  As has
been hashed out before, the only thing that makes plphp different from
other pl's is that some of the current packagers are taking shortcuts
with the packaging scripts which introduces dependency issues. IMHO what
is included in the postgresql cvs and what is included in the main
tarball for postgresql should not be dictated by outside packagers.
