I have a Redhat EL 5.4 server.  There is a postgresql update waiting but I can't apply it - have tried everything I can think of.  I can't find any way to get this libpq.so there.

Anyone got any thoughts?  Google shows a number of times of this sort of thing happening but I haven't been able to get any of the suggestions to work.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
