Error accessing to pgdg-centos94-9.4-1.noarch.rpm

Hi

I try to access to pgdg-centos94-9.4-1 RPM file, but this file has been removed from yum.postgresql.org. I think that was removed last saturday or sunday.


But when I go to https://yum.postgresql.org/9.4/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/, I can see these similar RPM:
...
pgdg-centos94-9.4-2.noarch.rpm 2015-Oct-21 08:52:11 5.2K application/x-redhat-package-manager
pgdg-centos94-9.4-3.noarch.rpm 2016-Sep-25 10:42:18 5.3K application/x-redhat-package-manager
...

I have two questions:
  • pgdg-centos94-9.4-1.noarch.rpm has been removed accidentally?
  • If previous questions is "not", what is yum.postgresql policy about retention period for rpm files?

Thanks a lot

Sorry, we are not interested at pgdg-centos rpm, we are more interested about postgres94-* rpm.

Actually I used  Postgresql 9.4.3, and I have not seen these rpm at yum.postgresql.org server. What is yum.postgresql policy about retention period for rpm files?


Thanks

Right, we released new repo RPMs. Please always find the latest version from ht
tps://yum.postgresql.org/repopackages.php

No, it was intentional.

Starting Sunday, we keep only n-2 releases to save disk space and create less
delta RPMs. Please visit the URL I gave above for the up2date repo file.

Oh, we never kept any release that much, even during manual cleanup. Starting
Sunday, we started purging the repo automagically, with keeping only last 3
releases. 

(We don't want our users to use older and buggy and insecure PostgreSQL
releases ;) )
