libraries

Hello,


I need to install postgresql 7.2.3 or 7.3.1 on machine with production
database running 7.0.2 to transfer all the data directly via pgdump
... | psql. Newer version uses newer libraries, so to make 7.2.3 work
I need to 'ldconfig' with newer libraries path in ld.so.conf.

How can I start both versions of postgres on the same machine? (with
different $DATA and ports, of course). More exactly, how to make one
postgres use newer library and other the older one at the same time?


I know this task is much more system- than DBMS-oriented but anyway,
can anyone help? (I'm running slackware 8).

Thanks in advance.



Regards,
        Aleksey
