I successfully install the .bin installer in linux redhat-centos-fedora.
After a few days using pgadmin and postgresql in the one-click ,I decided
to go back to old plain postgresql and postGIS (Am I right ? the one click
installer not include the PostGIS extension. ) .
Is there an option to uninstall the one-click-postgresql-et.al from the
binary .bin file. The --help option not much help too.

I know I would be able to simply delete the Postgresql/8.3/ installation
folder straightaway but just not sure that would be a clean uninstall
method. This is because when I execute ./uninstall-postgresql it always
prompt me "Segmentation fault" , without the quotes.

No.

Urgh - what distro/version exactly?

You can just delete the installation directory - but first you should
run $INSTALLDIR/installer/server/removeshortcuts.sh

You'll also need to remove the postgres user account (if it wasn't
there before you installed), /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3 and
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/postgresql-8.3.conf (if that doesn't exist, check
for a line in /etc/ld.so.conf).
