What all must I do to change from the rpm installed version to the
compilable version?

Do I need to uninstall the rpms?

In theory, you could probably run both, but it's probably easier to pg_dump
your databases, uninstall the rpms and compile the source.

Compiling the source is straightforward enough, just make sure you've read
the docs first.

No, you can have both versions on the same system.
