I suggest improving install steps for CentOS 8

Hello,

I have found a problem with the following page.

page: https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/

I tried install PostgreSQL12 into CentOS 8 as written on this page.
However, I couldn't install it by the following error.


# dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
# dnf install -y postgresql12
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C

PostgreSQL 9.6 for RHEL/CentOS 8 - x  55 kB/s | 518 kB     00:09
No match for argument: postgresql12
Error: Unable to find a match


There is a workaround for this problem.
I executed a below command.
I could install it.

# dnf module disable postgresql

This problem has already reported to Red Hat Bugzilla.
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1718201#c1)

However, this problem has been already closed.
Because it seems that is not a bug.

Therefore I suggest that add a workaround in this document like an
attachment.

Thanks,

Agreed, it's not a bug.

This doesn't explain what the problem is, and why the above command works (or
what side effects it may have).  I don't think it's a bad idea to mention this
problem on the page but we should phrase it in such a way that it's clear what
the underlying problem is, and what the fix means.  Linking to offical RPM docs
can be a good way too?

Adding Magnus :-)

Seriously speaking, for RHEL 8, we need to add

dnf -qy module disable postgresql

command. Magnus, can you patch this when you can?

Yeah, it seems like it would be better to add this as part of the instructions rather than as a note on the side.

What is the normal time to do this, in the sequence. After the repository rpm is installed but before client packages?

And is there any case you'd want to add the pg repositories but *not* do this? I assume not?
