[WBEL-users] PostgreSQL 8.0 ?

[Aly Dharshi]

Hi Mario,

	I think that if you have a srpm and all dependencies for the srpm are satisfied 
basically you can think of it as custom building and rpm for your system, so yes 
it should work just fine. I am planning to try it out fairly soon, I have done 
this for other software that don't have updates from WBEL like xchat or rdesktop 
(from srpms) and they work fine.

	Cheers,

	Aly.
