Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2001-03-09 15:50:20 UTC
This error means the postgresql-devel RPM is either corrupt or missing from the
hard drive image you are installing from. Check into that first.


Comment 2 Fabio Nunes 2001-03-10 01:33:41 UTC
I did the download from one of yours mirror site in my country 
(ftp.matrix.com.br) and the only postgresql files are listed bellow.


How can I check if I have all the files needed?

I would recommend downloading everything again from a different source.
Apparently the tree you copied was incomplete.

Making CDs is also an alternative.
