yum.postgresql.org & PostGIS question

At the top of yum.postgresql.org it says:

> PostgreSQL RPM Building Project - Yum Repository

> You will find details on PostgreSQL related RPMs for Fedora / Red Hat / CentOS / Scientific Linu / Oracle Linux / Amazon AMIx, like pgAdmin, Slony-I, PostGIS, etc.

I see NO information about PostGIS.

I clicked on release 10 and see nothing about PostGIS there.

(I also checked your https://yum.postgresql.org/files/PostgreSQL-RPM-Installation-PGDG.pdf - it was last updated in 2007...)

If someone installs 10 on CentOS 7, do they get PostGIS?

Or what version of PostGIS is compatible and how do they install it?

https://postgis.net/install/

Has instructions for installing PostgreSQL 9.5 and PostGIS 2.2 - are those the latest for CentOS 7?

We've been advised to install PostGIS 2.3.4. (and PostGres 9.5.10)

Thanks,

Please run

yum search postgis

You will see packages like this:

postgis22_95.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis22_96.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis23_10.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis23_95.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis23_96.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis24_10.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis24_95.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL
postgis24_96.x86_64 : Geographic Information Systems Extensions to PostgreSQL

So, running

yum install postgis24_10 will give you PostGIS 2.4 compiled against PostgreSQL
10.
