How I yum install postgres using rpm from http://yum.postgresql.org?
I followed these steps:
Install Centos 6.5 from Live DVD:
http://vault.centos.org/6.5/isos/x86_64
I google: Postgres 9.5 install on Centos 6.5
I run two shell commands:
wget https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.5/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-centos95-9.5-2.noarch.rpm
yum install pgdg-centos95-9.5-2.noarch.rpm
I'm not sure what to do next.
I see this page:
http://yum.postgresql.org/repopackages.php
At the top of the page is a link: 'Yum Howto'
I click that link and see this page:
http://yum.postgresql.org/howtoyum.php
The first link there is this:
http://yum.postgresql.org/repopackages.php
So I am seeing circular documentation rather than helpful documentation.
I see a link to a pdf:
http://yum.postgresql.org/files/PostgreSQL-RPM-Installation-PGDG.pdf
I open the pdf and it lists packages that are available.
I surmise that I need these packages:
postgresql-libs, postgresql and postgresql-server
It does not say where they are.
Questions:
Where are the packages listed in PostgreSQL-RPM-Installation-PGDG.pdf ?
Assuming I want to install: postgresql-libs, postgresql and postgresql-server, How to?
At postgresql.org, I see this rpm : pgdg-centos95-9.5-2.noarch.rpm
What is the purpose of pgdg-centos95-9.5-2.noarch.rpm?
