Apparently, perl-DBD-Pg is in need of an update. Didn't the HR6.1 box
come with v6.5.x of Postgres and with DBD-Pg? (I've forgotten...) If
so, DBD-Pg should have been built by RH to be consistant with the
distro so I'm not sure why you are seeing a problem. If it shipped
with some earlier release, then they might be in conflict and we/Lamar
might consider releasing a new version of the perl-DBD-Pg package.

Lamar?
