Solaris users should probably use a 3rd party package management system 
like Pkgsrc[.org] to avoid these problems.  In FBSD, Ports shows:

predaking# cd /usr/ports/databases/postgresql81-client
predaking# make fetch
=> postgresql-base-8.1.2.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in 
/usr/ports/distfiles/postgresql.

ftp://ftp3.us.postgresql.org/pub/postgresql/source/v8.1.2/.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 143541 Jan 5 23:11 postgresql-opt-8.1.2.tar.bz2

...Those are the two files in question.  Let us know.

I'm using the file postgresql-base-8.1.2.tar.gz which I've downloaded from the PostgreSQL main website. Do I maybe need any other source files ? Or is that a case where I need to decompress this file with GNU tar and not Solaris tar ?
