Hallo Scott,
 
after deinstalling the version 8.2 with fedora I got with the same command in /home/alf/pg83/bin the right version 8.3.
 
I decided, I will import my Data with Navicat. 
 
For the next upgrade I know there will be a lot of work for
for me.
 
Thanks for your efforts, I have learned so much about fedora
without rpm.
 
By the way: Pirut is a yum-GUI for fedora.
 
With kind regards
Alfred

They make a nice piece of software.  I've used it in the past.

But remember that updates are cheap.  i.e. 8.3.0 to 8.3.1 is just a
new package, no need to dump and reload.  only when 8.4 comes out do
you need to worry about that.

Yeah, my last workstation as a FC2 box and it was so dorked out by all
the source code stuff i'd built on it that it was starting to have
some issues.  :)

Hope to see you again on the lists soon!
