Explanation from ValidatePgVersion: Version number in file
'/tmp/pgsql/data/PG_VERSION' should be 6.4, not 6.5.
The PostgreSQL 6.4.2 RPMs that were shipped with RedHat 6.0 are still
installed. Run 'rpm -qa|grep postgresql' -- then, run 'rpm -e' on all
the postgresql RPM's that -qa reported.
The tarball version and the RPM version do not like each other,
primarily due to the fact that the RPM version places postmaster in
/usr/bin -- if you set your PATH to search the tarball installation's
bin directory BEFORE /usr/bin, then things will settle down -- but it's
best to uninstall the 6.4.2 RPM's first. Or, you can fully qualify the
path for postmaster (/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster, or whereever you
have it installed).

Or, you can upgrade to the 6.5.3 RPM's.
