here is what I do. 1. Download postgresql 8.0.1 source from ftp.postgresql.org 2. un tar package 3. ./configure --enable-debug --with-pgport=9999 --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql
change --prefix to where ever you want to install 4. make 5. make check with step 5 you will see failures. let me know if you need any more info.
