Hi All:

	First, I would like to thank Devrim and DarcyB on #slony!  Thank you for your patience and seeing this all the way though to resolution.

	The solution:

	In my bash script that was passing arguments to slonik, I had defined the replication user as "pgsql" when in reality it should have been postgres.  This is what was causing the error related to loading the xxid.so.

	<snippet>	
REPLICATIONUSER=postgres
export REPLICATIONUSER
	</snippet>

Cheers,

Ouray

Yeah, I committed a fix for that a few minutes before. Please edit
postgresql-slony1.spec.in and change .bz2 to .gz in the spec file. That
will be an easier fix for you (CVS version has all the references
as .bz2)
