PostgreSQL 9.0.3 on RHEL 5.6?

Is PostgreSQL 9.0.x certified to run on RHEL 5.6?  My platform is x86_64.  I am installing from source, not the one-click installer at this time.

I appologize if this is a silly question in the world of PostgreSQL.  I am predominately an Oracle guy, and as such I am used to waiting for the vendor to certify their product on every release of the operating system.  I am not sure how this works with open source databases like PostgreSQL.  I have read through the release notes and I don't see anything like a max supported version of the operating system.

Thanks in advance,

-Mark

If you are using Source Code, then you can compile and would be able to use PostgreSQL.

If you see any issue with PostgreSQL on Linux Platform (RHEL 5.6) then you are welcome to post your queries.
