Preferred approach is to use PGDG rpms from yum.postgresql.org

enable repo:
yum install=C2=A0https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.3/redhat/r=
h
el-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat93-9.3-2.noarch.rpm

install postgresql:
yum install postgresql93-server postgresql93-contrib

Without readline library (some of them):
1 command editing is not possible in psql
2 history navigation not possible in psql

Without zlib:
pg_dump, pg_restore, pg_baseback will not support
compression/uncompression
