Try rpm -ba postgresql.spec which builds both source and binary RPMs.
You may need additional libraries if compilation does not work. Building an
RPM from spec is quite usefull when you want to choose specific compilation
options.

Otherwise, if you don't need to modify compilation options, just go for :
rpm --rebuild --target i586 postgresql.src.rpm which will rebuild a binary
package.

So why is it i586 and not i686? The answer is last time I compiled PostgreSQL
7.0 for i686, I got some errors; even with all libraries installed. From
then, I always used the --target i586 flag.
