I've installed postgresql a couple of times using (out of the history
file and suppressing the chaff):

       148  rpm -e postgresql-perl-6.5.3-1mdk.i586.rpm
       149  rpm -e postgresql-server-6.5.3-1mdk
       150  rpm -e postgresql-6.5.3-1mdk
       152  cd /root/tmp
       156  rpm -i postgresql-6.5.3-1mdk.i586.rpm
       157  rpm -i postgresql-server-6.5.3-1mdk.i586.rpm
       158  rpm -i postgresql-perl-6.5.3-1mdk.i586.rpm
       159  find / -name pgsql -print

The pgsql executable is not found. No error messages were generated. The
startup of the server is in the startup scripts. There is all kinds of
documentation in the /usr/doc/postgresql-6.5.3/ subdirectory. Are there
any suggestions? ---Jay
