Обсуждение: upgrading postgresql84 package from rhel-x86_64-server-5 repo
I hope this is the correct mailing list for installation issues.
We currently have postgresql84-8.4.5 installed on our server. I would like to upgrade it to postgresql84-8.4.17. However, the rhel-x86_64-server-5 repo only goes up to postgresql84-8.4.13.
Is there another repo I can use for the postgresql84 packages that has postgresql84-8.4.17? Or an RPM I can get somewheres? Why is the rhel-x86_64-server-5 repo not current?
Or do I have to do a complete reinstall from "postgresql84" packages to "postgresql" packages in order to use a new repo, such as yum.postgresql.org?
Any advice on how to go about this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
John

I can see 8.4.17 there. Maybe you checked somewhere else?

Devrim,
Yes, I checked there. The problem is the package names don't match. I currently have a package named "postgresql84" installed. The postgresql.org repo has the "postgresql" package. Is it possible to upgrade "postgresql84" using the RPM from "postgresql" ?
Regards,
John

Ahh, you are using Red Hat's packages. Community packages support postgresql84 naming scheme for RHEL 6. You may want to pester Red Hat for updated packages (i.e. Tom), or use ours (which is fully compatible with RH packages). Usually community pushes updates quicker.
I am sure you can replace rh packages with ours pretty easily.

I suppose he's asking about the official RHEL packages, which indeed are only at 8.4.13. The right way to make something happen there would be to pester his Red Hat support contact. (Although really, since RHEL5 is now in production phase 2 which means it only gets critical updates, nothing is very likely to happen until a security bug comes along that RH's security team deem sufficiently interesting. This morning's releases aren't likely to get that done, since the high-dollar problem isn't in 8.4. If you want newer packages it's probably time to move to RHEL6.) regards, tom lane
Tom, That is correct. I was hoping for the official RHEL packages. I think I'll instead put our efforts towards upgrading to 9.2and using the yum.postgresql.org repo to do so. I was hoping for some interim patches before we upgrade, but that is notgoing to happen. Time to just do the upgrade! Thank you for the help in figuring this one out.
