Sounds good - A Requires: plus some references to EPEL being recommended
for RHEL/CentOS would do the job.
We don't need it for 9.4 though; the conditional uuid support may be
removed entirely and replaced with:
# Over time the package containing this has varied. If in doubt use:
# yum whatprovides /usr/lib64/libuuid.so
# to find out.
%if 0%{?rhel} == 5
BuildRequires: e2fsprogs-devel
%else
BuildRequires: libuuid-devel
%endif
and instead of --with-ossp-uuid to configure, use:
--with-uuid=e2fs
then there's no need for core postgresql94 packages to depend on EPEL at
all anymore.
