Thread: BUG #1820: Installation: Dependency failure

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      1820
Logged by:          Bernard
Email address:      bht@actrix.gen.nz
PostgreSQL version: 8.03-1
Operating system:   Linux RedHat 9
Description:        Installation: Dependency failure
Details:

How to reproduce:
- Install Red Hat 9
- Download all files from
ftp://ftp.nz.postgresql.org/postgresql/binary/v8.0.3/linux/rpms/redhat/redha
t-9/
into a single directory
- execute # rpm -ivh *

Expected behavior: The Postgresql core system should be installed

Actual behavior:

error: Failed dependencies:
        libecpg.so.4 is needed by postgresql-libs-8.0.3-1PGDG
        libpgtypes.so.1 is needed by postgresql-libs-8.0.3-1PGDG
        libpq.so.3 is needed by postgresql-libs-8.0.3-1PGDG

There are other errors with non-core packages e.g postgresql-contrib but
these are not subject of this bug.
