I believe the issue here is that you've got Red Hat's postgresql packages
installed,
As I've mentioned, this Postgres version comes with CentOs installation,
so I guess you're right.
and they're not set up to participate in alternatives
switching. I'd suggest removing those packages
By "removing those packages" you mean uninstall v9.2? This is a test
computer and it's not a problem, but I'm afraid this is going to happen
also in production server, by doing this won't be my cluster be unavailable?
--- having them installed
alongside PGDG postgres packages is going to lead to nothing but grief.

So what's happening is that I have installed a RH version of Postgres
instead an official one? Am I right?

Ekaterina
