[postgis-users] RHEL4 RPMs?

The rpms installed ok but when I went to install postgis into a test database
by issuing the following commands:

> createdb $DBNAME
> createlang plpgsql $DBNAME
> psql -q -f /usr/share/pgsql/contrib/lwpostgis.sql -d $DBNAME

I get an error at this point (or rather, a bunch of errors but the first one
is most relevant):

psql:/usr/share/pgsql/contrib/lwpostgis.sql:47: NOTICE:  type "histogram2d"
is not yet defined
DETAIL:  Creating a shell type definition.
psql:/usr/share/pgsql/contrib/lwpostgis.sql:47: ERROR:  could not access
file "/postgis.so": No such file or directory
psql:/usr/share/pgsql/contrib/lwpostgis.sql:52: ERROR:  current transaction
is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block

I found another email that mentioned a similar problem
(http://lists.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2006-June/012479.html)
but no one responded.  The workaround for that person was to remove the
leading / before the postgis.so references.  Is this a known issue or some
sort of misconfiguration on my part?

Thanks,
Corey
