It means you'll have to dump your database using pg_dump (of the 7.1.3
version currently installed), then upgrade (rpm -U postgresql-7.2.1),
then restore the dump (by means of psql < dump, or using pg_restore).
Be sure to read the manpages for pg_dump and pg_restore if you haven't
done so.
BTW, the PGDG RPMs should take care of the upgrading process
automatically, but there are always pitfalls so you may as well be
careful.

Sounds good.
1. I did a pg_dumpall just in case.
2. Then I got my list of rpms which consist of:
postgresql-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-contrib-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-devel-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-libs-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-perl-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-python-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-server-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-tcl-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
postgresql-tk-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm
3. Tried rpm -U postgresql-7.2.1-2PGDG.i386.rpm but it fails with:
error: failed dependencies:
postgresql = 7.1.3 is needed by postgresql-server-7.1.3-2
Am I not doing this correctly?
