  Good morning Devrim,

Is libpq5 an important component that needs the upgrade?

From here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq.html

"libpq is the C application programmer's interface to PostgreSQL. libpq is a set of library functions that allow client programs to pass queries to the PostgreSQL backend server and to receive the results of these queries.

libpq is also the underlying engine for several other PostgreSQL application interfaces, including those written for C++, Perl, Python, Tcl and ECPG. So some aspects of libpq's behavior will be important to you if you use one of those packages. In particular, Section 32.15, Section 32.16 and Section 32.19 describe behavior that is visible to the user of any application that uses libpq."

To me that is, yes it is important.

I am wanting to try after Adrian's suggestion yesterday to see if I can update the repo file first of all since it came with the rest of the updates.

If that does not solve it, I would consider disabling the package.

    Ah ok. So basically it means PostgreSQL is installed from Red Hat
    packages, not PGDG. I would suggest you either not to use PGDG repos at
    all for consistency, or switch to PGDG repo and use our packages as a
    whole.

    ...or you can edit /etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-redhat-all.repo file, and add

    exclude=libpq5

    under the [pgdg-common] section so that dnf will ignore that.
