The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 15027
Logged by: Brian Hill
Email address: bchill@bch.net
PostgreSQL version: 9.5.10
Operating system: CentOS 7
Description:
The RHEL/CentOS 7 EPEL repo recently bumped armadillo from 4.X to 8.X.
This causes a dependency problem for gdal-libs, (hence libgeotiff), which is
needed by postgis22, when a yum update is run (I've simplified the output
here by trying to update just armadillo):
# yum update armadillo

Error: Package: gdal-libs-1.11.4-10.rhel7.x86_64 (@postgres-95)

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
To fix this (that is, to make a yum update succeed), I had to remove
gdal-libs and libgeotiff provided by the postgresql 95 repo, and install
those provided by EPEL.
Before:

Now:

This results in a newer version of armadillo but older versions of gdal-libs
and libgeotiff.
Whether this is really a 'bug' depends on whether the maintainers think the
older versions of gdal-libs and libgeotiff are sufficient.
Are they? :-)
