There was an issue with making RPM's for 8.1.5 which is probably why
these RPM's are not available as yet.

You can either download the 8.1.4 RPM's (simply change 8.1.5 to 8.1.4 in
your links above) or you can get the 8.1.5 source and compile yourself.

Probably there was no one with FC4 systems to build the rpms. You can
download the source rpms and build the rpms from it:

Download from:
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.1.5/linux/srpms/fedora/fedora-core-4/

And then build for x86:

rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686-redhat-Linux

http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/download/mirrors-ftp?file=binary%2Fv8.1.5%2Flinux%2Fsrpms%2Ffedora%2Ffedora-core-4%2Fpostgresql-8.1.5-6PGDG.src.rpm

and for x86_64:
rpmbuild --rebuild

http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/download/mirrors-ftp?file=binary%2Fv8.1.5%2Flinux%2Fsrpms%2Ffedora%2Ffedora-core-4%2Fpostgresql-8.1.5-6PGDG.src.rpm

If you do it place the rpms where Devrim can copy them to the ftp server.

Download the file again, from another mirror. Either you have a corrupt
download, or the mirror hasn't picked up the file correctly.

It says "I need tcl-devel RPM in order to build this package".
