I tried using the dev Postgres RPMS, and am still running into the same 
issues. I did this on an x86 system, since the x86_64 is currently partially 
in production, to see if it could/would work. 

I tried: 
1) yum remove `rpm -qa | grep postg`; # This removed php-pgsql due to 
dependencies 

2) wget all the PG 8.x RPMS from Centos dev.

3) rpm -Uvh postg*  

4) yum install php-pgsql; # returns an error pasted below: 
Resolving Dependencies
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Package php-pgsql.i386 0:4.3.9-3.9 set to be updated
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: libpq.so.3 for package: php-pgsql
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libpq.so.3 is needed by package php-pgsql

Back to square one. Ideas?
