...I don't like Red Hat for this reason--it usually doesn't give you much
information about problems...
For a production machine, I typically build and install my entire
"mission-critical" chain of apps. Postgres, PHP, Apache, etc. This helps
avoid a few problems: Red Hat may suddenly upgrade to a newly incompatible
version, or may just change a configuration.
At a guess, I would say that you are probably missing an .rpm for the
postgres-client or pgsql-client, but that is based on my view dealings with
Red Hat.
