Apparently you have bad packages installed that you cannot easily
uninstall because of a broken script (something in the preun or postun
script fails and aborts the removal).
So the easiest thing to do is:
rpm -e --noscripts postgresql postgresql-libs postgresql-server
And then reinstall postgresql the normal way.
And next time, do not install packages you find somewhere on the net if
you don't know what you (or the packages) are doing.
Kind regards,
