perl(Pg) error on contrib package

Hi,

 

I recently upgraded from 7.2.4 to 7.4.1, but can’t install the contrib rpm.

 

# rpm -ivh postgresql-contrib-7.4.1-1PGDG.i386.rpm

error: Failed dependencies:

        perl(Pg) is needed by postgresql-contrib-7.4.1-1PGDG

 

I installed the ‘postgresql-pl-7.4.1-1PGDG.i386.rpm’ package, but that didn’t help.

 

Here’s what’s installed so far…

 

postgresql-7.4.1-1PGDG

postgresql-libs-7.2.4-5.80

postgresql-libs-7.4.1-1PGDG

postgresql-server-7.4.1-1PGDG

postgresql-pl-7.4.1-1PGDG

 

Some of perl packages –

perl-DBD-Pg-1.13-5

perl-5.8.0-88.3

 

 

Appreciate any pointers,

 

Thanks,
Anjan

AFAIR, there was a wrong dependency in the package.

Use --nodeps option. It will work.
