Manually.   The SuSE RPM is reccommended if a) you don't need the
latest version, and b) you don't need any non-standard compile options
or stuff from the /contrib directory.   Otherwise, downlaod the .tar.gz
and install from scratch.

While the main Postgres build doesn't require any sources other than
GCC, many things in the /contrib directory require additional sources,
which you may install from the SuSE disks ("SRPMS").
