You'll need gcc-g++ among a few other things. If you want pgAdminIII to work, it gets trickier since you have to have postgresql-9.1.
Easy solution is to get the 9.1 postgres from the PGDG repo at their site. Once you have that, you'll need to build swig-1.3.29(used for gdal java libs, I believe), proj.4-4.8, geos-3.3.2, and gdal-1.9.0. 1. yum install swig (That should get you the latest and greatest swig build). 2. Build Proj.4 a. get proj-4.8.0.tar.gz b. tar -xvf proj-4.8.0.tar.gz c. cd proj-4.8.0 d. ./configure --without-jni e. make; make install 3. Build Geos a. get geos-3.3.2.tar.bz2 b. tar -xvf geos-3.3.2.tar.bz2 c. cd geos-3.3.2 d. ./configure --enable-python e. make;make install 4. Build GDal a. get gdal-1.9.0.tar.gz b. tar -xvf gdal-1.9.0.tar.gz c. cd gdal-1.9.0 d. make; make install e. chmod 755 tools/geos-config 5. Build PostGIS-2.0 a. get the postgis-2.0 version you want b. tar -xvf postgis-2.0.tar.gz (or whatever version you're using) c. ./configure --with-raster --with-pgconfig=/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config --with-geosconfig=<path to geos extracted directory>/tools/geos-config d. make; make install You might need to tweak which configuration parameters you are using for your build, but this is how I built it. Note, the CentOS version of pgAdminIII will not work with postgresql-9.1, so you'll need to build it yourself. The easiest way to do this is to hook up with the rpmforge yum repo and try to install it. Otherwise, building pgAdminIII requires a bit of playing with as well. J.

Compile for building RPMs? If you expect it from me (as the packager), no, I'm not doing it :-) OTOH, I have no idea how hard it is. That said, RHEL 5 is 5 years old. Time to upgrade.
