repo packages != PostgreSQL RPMs

You first install the repository RPMs. The repo RPMs just prepare your
system so that you can install PostgreSQL. -4 is the version of the
repository RPM -- not PostgreSQL rpm.

Then, yum install postgresql91-server will install 9.1 on your system
--whatever the version is.

So for example, the latest in 9.1 for RHEL 6 is:

http://yum.postgresql.org/9.1/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/repoview/postgresql91-server.html

9.1.9 .

-HTH
