Обсуждение: [MASSMAIL]Disabling of postgresql module
I am curious as to why in rhel 8 that postgresql module needs to be disabled. As rhel does not support postgresql16 and that the competing repos came from when running a yum update, but by disabling postgresql module it eliminated the competing repo. Why would this be if there is not postgresql16 module on rhel 8?

Why would this be if there is not postgresql16 module on rhel 8? That is for safety reasons. Perhaps it cannot happen with v16, but in general it is a bad idea to install PGDG packages and Redhat packages side by side. They are configured differently, and if you mix, you get interesting and hard-to-debug problems. Yours, Laurenz Albe

If you don't disable the postgresql-module, none of the server packages from yum.postgresql.org are visible on RHEL8 (rocky 8 actually): $ sudo yum search postgresql server ======================================================== Name & Summary Matched: server, postgresql ========================================================= postgresql-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server postgresql-server-devel.x86_64 : PostgreSQL development header files and libraries $ sudo dnf module disable postgresql $ sudo yum search postgresql server ======================================================== Name & Summary Matched: server, postgresql ========================================================= postgresql12-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server postgresql13-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server postgresql14-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server postgresql15-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server postgresql16-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server Christoph
