The server had postgres 7.4 installed, when I tried to upgrade to 8.2.10, I got error on failed dependencies:
rpm -Uvh --test postgresql-*.rpm

That is why I use the --nodeps, expecting that I will rebuild php rpm afterwards.
rpm -Uvh --nodeps postgresql-*.rpm

I look into php.spec, it does not specify the usage of libpq.so.3.  So I am wondering why library pgsql.so requires libpq.so.3, and if there is any compatibility issue.
 
Thanks.

Was there a reason why you had to use --nodeps? Exactly which rpms did you install?

As Alan pointed out, this is a runtime error not a compile error. How did you rebuild the php 4.3.9 rpm? Any errors during that process?

> Can PHP 4.3 work with postgresql 8.2, and how can I point PHP rpm to use libpq.so.5?  Thanks.

Once you have it compiled properly it should work fine.
