Are there known issues and how do I get around installing the PostGreSQL
7.4.3 binaries on RH 8?

I tried installing it and it needed dependencies. So I got the
dependencies, which included OpenSSL, but it wouldn't let me update
OpenSSL because the current version is needed for other programs.

It also says postgresql = 7.2.2 is needed by postgresql-server, so it
won't overwrite it.

I tried yum and got an error, "identical dependency errors"

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match

You might be best advised to get the source RPM (SRPM) and rebuild it
locally to produce binaries tailored to your machine.

TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to majordomo@postgresql.org

I was going to suggest this:
http://www.fedoralegacy.org/

but they just dropped 7.3 and 8 support.
