Hi Thomas, As psql -V says: psql (PostgreSQL) 7.0.3 Why then not just install: postgresql-perl-7.0.3-8 RPM for i386 ?? from: http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/redhat/7.1/i386/postgresql-perl-7.0.3-8.i386.html This woul save me the hassle of reinstalling, pg_dumping and whatever else.... Is my assumption correct??
