Обсуждение: No yum repo for CentOS 7 and postgres 16?

Hi all,

CentOS 7 isn't quite dead yet but it appears that CentOS7 is not included in the new yum repo file including 16.

Here's a bit from the latest repo file:

Summary     : PostgreSQL PGDG RPMs- Yum Repository Configuration for Red Hat / Rocky / CentOS
Description :
This package contains yum configuration for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS,
and also the GPG key for PGDG RPMs.
* Tue Sep 12 2023 Devrim Gündüz <devrim@gunduz.org> - 42.0-35PGDG
- Add v16 repos
- Remove v16 repos from RHEL 7

Really?  Might one inquire as to why?  Yes, CentOS 7 is headed for EOL but not until June 30, 2024.

Do those of us still on CentOS 7 wanting to upgrade to 16 now have to build from source?

Thank you David.  I looked through the postgres mailing lists and didn't see a yum specific one.

I'll re-direct this to that list.
