Thread: Yum PG 8.1?

I did 'yum search postgres' on my system (FC4) and the
latest version that shows up is 8.0.7. How can I get
yum to install 8.1.x? Here are the sites in my
yum.conf:

http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch
http://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch


Thanks,
CSN

AFAIK, only we[1] ship the 8.1.x binaries for FC4 . So, there is no way
to update via yum because we don't manage a yum repository.

Also there is another point: FC4 ships with 8.0.X, so you'll need a
dump/reload to switch to 8.1.X. Our RPMs does not do that automatically,
so yum should not work.

See
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.1.3/linux/rpms/fedora/fedora-
core-4/

for FC4 - 8.1.3 RPMs.
