I have a standard Redhat 9 installation with the exception of
upgrading bison to bison-1.875-7.1

I can build the postgres rpm files from the source for version 7.4.5
no problems with the following command: rpmbuild --rebuild --define
'build89 1' --define 'python 0' --define 'test 0' --define 'plperl 0'
--define 'tcldevel 0' --define 'pltcl 1'
postgresql-7.4.5-2PGDG.src.rpm

However when I try the exact same on the 7.4.6 source rpm I get the
following errors:

checking for zlib.h... yes checking krb5.h usability... no checking
krb5.h presence... no checking for krb5.h... no configure: error:
header file <krb5.h> is required for Kerberos 5 error: Bad exit
status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.27397 (%build)

A quick comparison of the rpm spec file (postgresql-7.4.x-2PGDG.spec)
reveals that the 7.4.5 version has the kerberos directory is set via:
%{?build7x:%define kerbdir /usr/kerberos} %{?build89:%define kerbdir
/usr/kerberos}

where as the 7.4.6 version has the kerberos directory is set via:
%{?build7x:%define kerbdir "/usr"} %{?build89:%define kerbdir "/usr"}

I think you'll agree that this directory change is not the default
for Redhat 7, 8 or 9

Can't help you a lot as I'm no expert on spec files, but I have recently
rebuilt 7.4.6-2 from src.rpm after applying a couple of patches (bug
dealing with intervals/rtree memory leak). Although I do see the
kerberos entries you note, there's another reference to kerberos in the
spec file:

%{!?kerbdir:%define kerbdir "/usr/kerberos"}

As noted, I'm not a spec file expert and don't have the time to research
this at this point, but maybe it will give you a lead as to resolving
your issues.
