Downgrading PostgreSQL to 8.2.x

[ryanmnly]

Is there any simpler method to downgrading to PostgreSQL 8.2.x? I am installing an application that requires it. I have removed postgresql 8.3 and tried to install some older fedora packages, but it did not go well.

My next step was to compile from scratch. However, I'm not real experienced with make/compiling and am fond of the organizational structure of RPMs.

The other option I could pursue is keeping 8.3 and installing an isolated 8.2 server for exclusive use by this app.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ryan

best bet is to build from source you might be able to keep 8.3 and also have 8.2 ... also if this is just simple php scripts you can always go in and edit them so the work with 8.3
