Can't install HPSIM because of postgresql

I can't install HPSIM because is complains about postgresql:

# ./T2416BA_4.02.00_Linux-hpsim.bin
Verifying archive integrity...OK
Uncompressing Hewlett Packard Company Systems Insight Manager C.04.02.00.00...................
There is another version of postgresql installed on this system.
You will need to remove this version of postgresql before attempting to install HP Systems Insight Manager.

All postgresql RPMs except rh-postgresql-libs are removed. I can't remove rh-postgresql-libs because many packages depend on it:

# rpm -e rh-postgresql-libs-7.3.6-7
error: Failed dependencies:
libpq.so.3 is needed by (installed) xemacs-21.4.13-8.ent
libpq.so.3 is needed by (installed) mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.1-4.ent
libpq.so.3 is needed by (installed) php-pgsql-4.3.2-14.ent
libpq.so.3 is needed by (installed) perl-DBD-Pg-1.21-2

What is the workaround for this stupid problem?

Re: Can't install HPSIM because of postgresql

Well, I just rpm -e'd all the packages except xemacs which required a rpm -e --nodeps xemacs.

It installs postgresql 7.4.1 which is more recent anyway.
