Hi Guys,
With the repo changes associated with the April 17 changes,

It is evident that support for amazon linux has been dropped.
While you can try to use redhat pgdp packages, they are not
installable on Amazon Linux, giving the following error...
/etc/redhat-release is needed by pgdg-redhat-repo-42.0-4.noarch
I confident that the rest rpms available in the repo can be used by
Amazon linux, but the redhat-release dependency is painful for
automation with existing recipes such as postgresql in chef.
Before I invest the effort to produce a pull request to address this,
I wanted to confirm that amazon linux has been dropped and will no
longer, nor likely ever be supported for the rpms repo's, or is it
still on the road map?
You will need a community account to see the issue:

Hi,
We dropped Amazon Linux support years ago, there were lots of
compatibility issues. The new repo RPMs just reflect that.
Please switch to a supported distro, or rebuild RPMs from SRPMS.
