Dear Devrim,

My fault. Uploading the file now. As Dave wrote, you should better use the
SRPM snapshot, as it includes the latest fixes. To rebuild :

1) wxGTK-2.5.1

Only use pgadmin wxGTK-2.5 version as it includes several patches. You can
download source and binary RPMs from http://pgadmin.postgresql.org/snapshots/
wxwindows.

To ease installation, it is recommanded to install wxGTK2ud binary RPMs.
Otherwise, if you need to rebuild from source SRPM:

rpmbuild --rebuild wxGTK2ud-2.5-xxxx.src.rpm 2>&1 | tee  
wxGTK2ud-2.5-xxxx.log

Read the log file and make sure the needed libraries are included in your
system (if they are not, install them using the stock RPMs for your distro).

For example, under RedHat 9, the log includes:

******************************************************************************
Configured wxWindows 2.5.1 for `i686-pc-linux-gnu'

  Which GUI toolkit should wxWindows use?                 GTK
  Should wxWindows be compiled into single library?       yes
  Should wxWindows be compiled in debug mode?             yes
  Should wxWindows be linked as a shared library?         no
  Should wxWindows be compiled in Unicode mode?           yes
  What level of wxWindows compatibility should be enabled?
                                       wxWindows 2.2      no
                                       wxWindows 2.4      yes
  Which libraries should wxWindows use?
                                       jpeg               sys
                                       png                sys
                                       regex              sys
                                       tiff               sys
                                       zlib               sys
                                       odbc               no
                                       expat              sys
                                       libmspack          no

******************************************************************************

The absence of ODBC and limmspack is normal as ODBC is not supported in a
Unicode build by default and limspack is brand new. Other libraries (jpeg,
png, etc...) should have the 'sys' flag on.

2) Then, rebuild the pgAdmin3 binary RPM from Snapshots.

rpmbuild --rebuild pgadmin3-xxx-src.rpm 2>&1 | tee log.txt

This will allow you to send us the log in case of problem.

Best regards,
Jean-Michel
