I down load pgSQL v 7.1rc1-1 rpm from ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/dev/test-rpms/. When I install it, there is a dependency check error for libpg.so.2 & libreadline.so.4.1. My server is running RH 6.2. Do I have to upgrade to RH 7.x?

Try the source install, personally I found it easier and more convenient
to install from the source tar.gz file in stead of RPM (My Suse system
supports RPM, but Im not a big fan of RPM). BTW do you have a new
install or an upgrade?

YMMV, but I've always just --force'd my way around libreadline problems,
and created a softlink to libreadline.so.4 in /usr/lib.

The libpg limitation seems different, tho' -- have you upgraded to all the
other PG 7.1 RPMs?
