Re: [GENERAL] CenOS 5/Postgresql 9.6
Looks like I'll be compiling. BTW, I'm not planning on running a server on it but have a couple pieces of expensive specialized hardware that are only certified on RHEL 5 i386 systems. They do need to talk to the server and I don't want to delay the migration of the rest of the infrastructure just because those aren't replaced, yet.

(I'm the maintainer of the repository) There are no packages for CentOS 5 / PG 9.6, and it was my decision to drop support -- as I thought that using CentOS 5 with a new set of PG releases would not be the best idea. I still think so. However, you can still rebuild 9.6 RPMs on your CentOS 5 box, by using this SRPM: https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/srpms/9.6/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/postgresql96-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel6.src.rpm I did not test it though, but it should work or less work... You can also contact a PostgreSQL support company, and ask them to provide the RPMs, too.

RHEL/CentOS 5 is still in production with extended support through 2020 but seems to be dropped from the 9.6 PGDG repos. CentOS 5 will be completely dropped in 2-3 weeks, I believe. The last CentOS 5 Update 11 release was in 2014. Extended support applies only to RHEL, and costs significant money per server. You might contact the yum.postgresql.org repository manager's employer, EnterpriseDB, and see if they'd be willing to extend support for RHEL 6 and PG 9.6 under contract. -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
