PostgreSQL version: 7.3.7
Operating system: Fedora Core 1
Description: 7.3.8 server RPM has file error
Details:
Installing postgresql-server-7.3.8-2PGDG.i686.rpm,
I get the following error:
error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/usr/lib/pgsql/utf8_and_gb18030.so;41994c83: cpio: read
7.3.7 RPMs install fine, no problems, runs fine: same site for download...
etc
The same error on the 7.3.8 version happens on both UK mirror sites, and a
US mirror site. [While there I notice: US download was faster than either UK
site, wget-> UK system]
Digging around, it seems that for 7.3.7 and 7.4.5, the naming convention was
*v.v.v-1PGDG* for FC1 and *v.v.v-2PGDG* for FC2. I notice that for 7.3.8 and
7.4.6 both FC1 and FC2 RPMs use the naming convention *v.v.v-2PGDG*. This
may be a red herring, since the file *2PGDG* also fails using FC2 on a
separate system.
Oh, and the bug report web form won't let me use 7.3.8 or 7.4.6 yet.
Hmmm...think I'll try the source build now.

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