Re: upgrading postgresql84 package from rhel-x86_64-server-5 repo

Tom,

That is correct. I was hoping for the official RHEL packages. I think I'll instead put our efforts towards upgrading to 9.2 and using the yum.postgresql.org repo to do so. I was hoping for some interim patches before we upgrade, but that is not going to happen. Time to just do the upgrade!

Thank you for the help in figuring this one out.

Regards,
John

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
