Thread: RH-PostgreSQL version 7.3.4 is included RHEL 3
Hi, I think there is some confusion about which PostgreSQL is included in RHEL3. I just checked and the following packages are in RHN channel Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v. 3 for x86): postgresql-odbc-7.3-3 PostgreSQL ODBC driver. rh-postgresql-7.3.4-8 PostgreSQL client programs and libraries. rh-postgresql-contrib-7.3.4-8 Contributed source and binaries distributed with PostgreSQL rh-postgresql-devel-7.3.4-8 PostgreSQL development header files and libraries. rh-postgresql-docs-7.3.4-8 Extra documentation for PostgreSQL rh-postgresql-jdbc-7.3.4-8 Files needed for Java programs to access a PostgreSQL database. rh-postgresql-libs-7.3.4-8 The shared libraries required for any PostgreSQL clients. rh-postgresql-python-7.3.4-8 Development module for Python code to access a PostgreSQL DB. rh-postgresql-tcl-7.3.4-8 A Tcl client library for PostgreSQL. I hope this answers some questions, Sander.

Right. Note the lack of any server-side packages. Only client-side
support was included in RHEL3.
Red Hat has now fixed things to the extent that you can download the
server packages over RHN:
