See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/installation.html

And specifically, from http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/install-
procedure.html

Client-only installation: If you want to install only the client
applications and interface libraries, then you can use these commands:
    gmake -C src/bin install
    gmake -C src/include install
    gmake -C src/interfaces install
    gmake -C doc install

Assuming you're using the RPMs that came with RH 9, you'll want to
find the postgresql rpms and install the base package.

[ checks CVS.. ]  Um, the Postgres RPMs that came with RHL9 were PG
7.3.4 :-(

The rest of that release is not any newer.  My question is why would you
want to run such an ancient Linux release?  Get onto something recent,
both as to the system and the database ... the download time will be
well repaid by time you don't spend pulling your hair out.
