There are no packages for CentOS 5 / PG 9.6, and it was my decision to drop
support -- as I thought that using CentOS 5 with a new set of PG releases would
not be the best idea.

I still think so.

However, you can still rebuild 9.6 RPMs on your CentOS 5 box, by using this
SRPM:

https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/srpms/9.6/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/postgresql96-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel6.src.rpm

I did not test it though, but it should work or less work...

You can also contact a PostgreSQL support company, and ask them to provide the
RPMs, too.
