The best bet is to use a linux platform that matches their packaged
versions. I use Centos5 and using yum to install from their 'unstable'
repository works fine - and includes the otherwise missing Sun Java that
it needs. Regardless of how you install (or update) you do need to run
their install script that creates or updates the postgresql database,
though.
