There is more than one RPM needed for the install. You need, for a
'regular' server install 'postgresql-7.1-1', 'postgresql-libs-7.1-1',
and 'postgresql-server-7.1-1'. The reasons for this are explained in
the README.rpm-dist file found on the website as well as in the RPM.

Re: 7.1 rpm problem

I had the same problem. I solved it by installing postgresql-libs-7.1-1 RPM
package.
As you do not have that package in previous postgres installations (libraries
used to be in the base using rpostgresql-7.1 package) rpm -Fvh does not
work...

Regards,
Peter
