yeah, right ;)

comment on the rpms:
1) could you modify the init script, specifically the initdb command,
to use the assigned $PGDATA. I have an environment where the
main database must be installed to a different location than
/var/lib/pgsql(/data)?. the suggested line is below.

su -l postgres -c "/usr/bin/initdb -D $PGDATA" > /dev/null

also, the original had a little typo: '< /dev/null'

otherwise, my experience with the rpms has been pretty good :) Thanks
for your effort.
