...and the bit I missed here is that there's a fourth file here:
lib/postgresql/pgstattuple.so
If you look at a 9.1 spec file, such as
http://svn.pgrpms.org/browser/rpm/redhat/9.1/postgresql/EL-6/postgresql-9.1.spec
, you'll find:
%files contrib
...
%{pgbaseinstdir}/lib/pgstattuple.so
Which *does* require a packager change to relocate from the
postgresql-91-package to the main server one. So the theory that a
change here might happen without pushing a repackaging suggestion toward
packagers is busted. This does highlight that some packaging guidelines
would be needed here to completely this work.
