It depends what version of postgresql you need! 1.7.0-rc5 is for 8.2.3.
The main Website at http://pgcluster.projects.postgresql.org/ is really
out of date now, so you should only really use it for general documentation.
This is where you should download files from
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgcluster/
