Re: Fedora Core 3 x86_64 compat libraries?

I forgot to reply this.

Yes, but please do not download 8.0.4 RPMs now. New sets of 8.0.4 RPMs
will be released this weekend (marked as 2PGDG). The current ones are a
bit buggy and will be replaced with new ones.

Regards,

http://developer.postgresql.org/~devrim/rpms/compat/compat-postgresql-libs-3-3PGDG.src.rpm

is the SRPM. Also I've just built the x86_64 RPM for you:

Yes, this is completely fixed in 8.1, except we allow UNICODE to be a
synonym for UTF-8. We also added Win32 support for UTF8 in 8.1.
