rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed


Maybe u met this problem when install PGSQL on CentOS 5.3
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed by pgdg-centos-8.5-1.noarch
we check the pgsql rpm release version
pgdg-centos-8.5-1.noarch [4 KiB] Changelog by Devrim GUNDUZ (2009-08-26):
pgdg-centos-8.4-1.noarch [4 KiB] Changelog by Devrim GUNDUZ (2008-09-03):
as far as we got, 8.5 is packaged recently, so the rpm-libs maybe very new.

to resolve this problem:

two option:
1. upgrade your system (rpm package)
as I searched, rpm 4.7.1 include rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1

2. install 8.4
rpm -Uvh http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/reporpms/8.4/pgdg-centos-8.4-1.noarch.rpm

btw: why the package in CentOS keep so old. coooool.
OpenSUSE/Debian/Ubuntu is better in new packages

    Why can’t someone just explain the root cause of the problem (rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed by pgdg-centos-8.5-1.noarch)? I need to know what caused it in the first place.
