No.

Probably the first question to ask is why you're trying to install
such an obsolete, long-out-of-support version of Postgres in the first
place --- and not even close to the last minor release thereof. Whoever
thought that was a good choice of release to use needs re-education.

Having said that, though, 8.2 should certainly work on RHEL 5/6 era
platforms. You either built it wrong, installed it wrong, or are
using it wrong. There's quite insufficient data here to say exactly
what's wrong, though.
