Once upon a time, when we were maintaining a few PostgreSQL releases like 7.3, 7.4 and 8.0, it was not that hard to maintain Slony-I RPM packages... However, as we began to support many PostgreSQL releases and Linux distros, it became hard to support SLony-I RPMs. I'm trying to push Slony-I to Fedora (Extras). Once it is pushed, we will have a Slony-I RPM in Fedora and EPEL. However, when someones wants to use a different PostgreSQL version (= PGDG RPMs) that is shipped in Fedora, that Slony-I RPM won't work. In order to solve that problem, you can build your RPM very easily. Just extract the tarball and run these: ./configure make rpm That is enough, if you have the development packages. This command will build Slony-I RPM that matches your PostgreSQL version...
