Hello:


I just want to download a binary latest postgres completely to install on my redhat.  When I browse the web, I have to browse deeply into the directories.


http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.2.4/linux/

Then

I have no idea the difference of rpms and srpms.


So many packages under

http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.2.4/linux/rpms/redhat/rhel-es-5/


Even after I downloaded it, how can i install it?

.


I have no idea why they put so many time to develop the software while so mean to write more document.   Only a couple of line is good enough!

Thanks.


Have a nice day.

Z. Du
