I'm trying to build the binaries of  Postgresql 7.2 for Redhat 7.1

This was the resoult:

root@XXX>  rpm --rebuild postgresql-7.2-1PGDG.src.rpm
Installing postgresql-7.2-1PGDG.src.rpm
error: failed build dependencies:
 gettext >= 0.10.36 is needed by postgresql-7.2-1PGDG


I tried to find a new binary for gettext without result, so I donwloaded
the source, I installed the version 0.10.40:

root@XXX>  gettest --version
gettext (GNU gettext) 0.10.40

Installing postgresql-7.2-1PGDG.src.rpm
error: failed build dependencies:
 gettext >= 0.10.36 is needed by postgresql-7.2-1PGDG

I would guess that it is looking up in the RPM database for gettext, and as
it is not installed from an RPM, it is not registered there. Have you tried
building it from the .tar.gz file? (That kind of problems caused me to quit
using RPMs allthogether, and rather install from source, everything is just
a ./configure && make && make install away...)

I know,
but I like know wich paremeter use with configure.
I don't like do ./configure without any flags specified (
I had a weekend of headache because when I compiled
 the GCC 3.0 the multithread option wasn't a default set
and you can imagine .... ).

Try

rpm --rebuild --nodeps postgresql-7.2-1PGDG.src.rpm

Better is to install with RPM, as dependencies do actually have a use.

Use www.rpmfind.net to find the source RPM for the updated gettext RPM and
rebuild it first, then the main rebuild will go smoother.

Doesn't exist the rpm for Redhat 7.1 for a version >= 0.10.36.
