Hi Brian,

if you're using PostgreSQL as provided by the distro, 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Enterprise_Linux_GIS or Fedora src.rpm 
packages might be a good starting point for repackaging.
If your on RHEL/Fedora and need a more current version of PostgreSQL, 
have a look at the packages at http://yum.postgresql.org/

Regards,

Peter
