Обсуждение: Linux package upgrade without dependency conflicts
We run Postgres 9.6 + 12 Community Edition on RHEL7 which we install directly out of the PGDG channels using RPMs. We also run Patroni installed with RPMs provided by Github.
Currently we have major dependency conflicts with each quarterly Linux package upgrade (yum upgrade), especially on PostGIS and Patroni.
I was told that there will be no dependency conflicts anymore when we install Postgres from sourcecode and Patroni with pip.
Is that correct? Because all Linux packages required by Postgres will continue to be updated.

Any hints on this one?
Thanks, Markus

Because all Linux packages required by Postgres will continue to be updated. This is not really a PostgreSQL question, it's more of a RedHat question I'd say. In general, no. If you install from source you will have a different kind of dependency management, and you need to handle all of that manually. As long as you do, there shouldn't be issues. That said, what are your dependency conflicts? As long as you're using the PGDG repositories on RHEL7 it should work without that. There have been some issues with PostGIS on RHEL8, but I think they are mostly fine on RHEL7. But if you don't actually show us what your dependency problems are, we can't tell you how to fix it... (And why not use Patroni from the PDGD repositories?) -- Magnus Hagander Me: https://www.hagander.net/ Work: https://www.redpill-linpro.com/
Yes. Pretty sure. PGDG repos. The last problems I remember had been related to Patroni + python-psycopg and PostGIS + pgrouting_96.

We used Patroni before it had been provided by the PGDG repositories. I am actually planning to use the RPMs from the PGDGrepo in the future. I will post our actual problems the next time.
