Install the postgresql-contrib RPM; it should be available wherever you
got the other postgresql RPMs from.

BTW, PG 7.2.4 is pretty ancient, and if I guess correctly that you are
running RHL 7.3, so is the rest of your OS ;-).  You really should
consider an update.  Fedora 4 will be out any day now ...
