When yum installs the PGDG postgresql-jdbc-8.3.3 RPM on CentOS 5, it

Upstream (I mean, Tom) is building -jdbc package with open source
components for a long time, and I am following that, too. We were
directly installing the binary jar files under /usr/share/java without
compilation.
So, you will need to install jar files I think:

Speaking as a near-ignoramus, would a simple RPM that wraps the binary
jar file make sense? I'm not sure what dependencies it should have,
though: simply 'java'? My issue is that a Rocks cluster likes to have
all software packaged as RPMs; compute nodes can be automatically built
from scratch when required simply by dumping RPMs in a certain directory
on the head node and adding the RPM name to an XML file.
I guess it can't be that hard for me to custom-build this sort of RPM,
although I've never built one before.
