If you download all RPMs and run
rpm -qip package_name
comamnd, you'll see the detailed information about each package.
You'll need to install postgresql-libs first. If you want to run server,
install postgresql-server and postgresql rpms. If this will be a client,
then you don't need to install -server RPM. The other packages are for
developing applications, docs, tcl, pl, etc support.
However, due to an important change in PostgreSQL 8.0.2+, you'll need
another RPM in RHEL 3:
http://developer.PostgreSQL.org/~devrim/compat-postgresql-libs-3-3PGDG.i686.rpm
With this RPM, you can overcome the problem. First install this package
and then install PostgreSQL.

postgresql- RPM comes with a "README.rpm-dist" file and that will guide
you for RPM installations.
However it might be good to include an RPM doc in main documentation set.
I'll submit a patch today.
