Hello,

I’m looking for guidance on how others are handling PGDG YUM repository maintenance on RHEL-like systems.

In our environment, we installed PostgreSQL 15 client libraries (postgresql15, libpq, etc.) across several hosts at a time when PostgreSQL 13 was still supported. As a result, the pgdg-redhat-all.repo file enabled multiple repositories (including pgdg13).

Now that PostgreSQL 13 has reached end-of-life, its repository has been moved to the archive, and the original URL no longer works. Because the repository remains enabled, dnf update fails when refreshing metadata. DNF skip_if_unavailabledoes not work because of the error code returned by the old repo (410?)

How are handling this situation apart from deleting old repo?


Gabriel B.
