I tried changing the link for /usr/bin/psql to directly link to the binary.  
That didn't help. 

I tried removing the link and copying the binary to /usr/bin/psql -- that 
didn't help either. 

I take it this means that the error message I'm getting isn't telling me the 
truth about what the real error is.

Subject: RE: [Spacewalk-list] upgrading postgres (8.4 > 9.x) on the spacewalk 
server ?

I'm attempting an install of spacewalk 2.2 using postgresql-9.3.  

I installed and manually configured postgresql.

When I attempt to install spacewalk I get this error:

  yum install spacewalk-postgresql

  ... many dependencies resolved ... etc ...

  Error: Package: spacewalk-postgresql-2.2.2-1.el6.noarch (spacewalk)
           Requires: /usr/bin/psql

However there is clearly something there:

[root ~]# ll /usr/bin/psql
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 28 Jul 21 12:35 /usr/bin/psql -> 
/etc/alternatives/pgsql-psql 

[root ~]# ll /etc/alternatives/pgsql-psql 
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 23 Jul 21 12:35 /etc/alternatives/pgsql-psql -> 
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/psql 

[root ~]# ll /usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/psql 
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 447560 Mar 18 03:19 /usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/psql

What is this package expecting to find there?  Is a symbolic link not good 
enough?  Can I fake it out by copying over the real binary or changing the link 
to point directly to the binary instead of an intermediate link?
