You're right, that seems to be missing. Under Linux it's better to 
install from source anyway: Do a python setup.py install. You can also 
build your own rpm with python setup.py bdist_rpm.

@D'Arcy: I have put a rpm file in my home directory for distribution. 
Can you add subfolders to the ftp distribution directory? Like that:

pub/
pub/PyGreSQL
pub/PyGreSQL/v3.7
pub/PyGreSQL/v3.8
pub/PyGreSQL/v3.9b1
pub/PyGreSQL/latest
pub/PyGreSQL/beta

In the docu, we could then simply point to pub/PyGreSQL or 
pub/PyGreSQL/latest and people can use whatever they'll find there (Win, 
RPM, ...). This allows us to add various binary formats later without 
changing the documentation all the time (you have placed version 
depending links to the Win binaries in the docu).
