need PostGIS binaries for Fedora 8.x

All,
I want to run PostgresQL/PostGIS on Fedora 8.3 (or 8.x).
I see the PostgresQL binaries here
    http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.3.0/linux/rpms/fedora/
Do those binaries contain PostGIS? (unable to inspect right now)
If not, can I download PostGIS binaries for Fedora?
I do not see them here http://postgis.refractions.net/download/
Where are they?
I am probably missing something obvious.

I am concerned about having to do a build.
Should I be?
Factors in this decision:
 - I am not under hard deadline.
 - I have zero linux experience
 - I am enthused about linux
 - I will be the linux admin! (I have no expert in house)
 - I have a solid unix user background (non-admin)
 - I am a competant java developer

Thanks
Paul
