rpm -ivh compat-postgresql-libs... --replacefiles
This will replace the files. Then try removing postgresql-libs. Now you
should be able to remove it, since libpq that apr-util is looking for is
already satisfied.
There is an excellent guide about this issue:

The package repository at http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org will solve these
problems after you fix the compat rpm issue.
