Oh, sorry, I didn't thought about looking for other packages from other distro
and versions before writing my email. I should I thought about that as, as I
wrote in my email, I found some old fedora packages providing the files...

So it looks like at least EL7 packages are broken/different from fedora 32. Here
are some more informations from a CentOS Linux 7 (vagrant box "centos/7"):

  # repoquery -f /usr/pgsql-12/bin/postgres
