I do not believe the binary for postgres 7.3.2 is yet available. Just un-tar the tarball and follow the instructions. There are no changes in the database/tables structures so when you make install it will overwrite the postgres 7.3.1 install, and then your done. As a causionary measure, I would have a backup.
