Thread: can't install pg 12 beta on centos 6

can't install pg 12 beta on centos 6

From

I thought I’d get a jump on testing this since we’re a little slow sometimes. 😊

 

I’ve spun up a new VM with Centos 6.10 (the latest). I found https://yum.postgresql.org/testing/12/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/repoview/ to get the packages (BTW, that was kind of hard to find). I ended up with:

 

postgresql12-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm

postgresql12-contrib-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm

postgresql12-libs-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm

postgresql12-plperl-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm

postgresql12-server-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64.rpm

 

Then I did an “rpm -ivh *” and found I was missing a few things. I downloaded and installed most of what was missing, but I’ve got 2 dependencies that I can’t resolve.

 

error: Failed dependencies:

        python2-libs is needed by postgresql12-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64

        openssl-libs >= 1.0.2k is needed by postgresql12-libs-12beta4-1PGDG.rhel6.x86_64

 

Openssl is at “1.0.1e” from CentOS. So where does this “1.0.2k” come from?

 

Centos 6.10 has nothing called python2-libs, though I do have:

 

$ rpm -qa | grep python | grep libs

python-libs-2.6.6-66.el6_8.x86_64

 

It *feels* like the packager of the PG rpms took a dependency list from RH 7.x and gave it to RH 6.x.

 

Since this is only a test on my part, I wanted to use the community packages instead of building from source. Am I going to have to build from source at this point in the game until we get to at least the RC’s?

 

Thanks,

Kevin

You might want to take a look at:


https://people.planetpostgresql.org/devrim/index.php?/archives/101-Installing-PostgreSQL-12-betaRC-on-RHELCentOSFedora.html

and change to RH/CentOS 6.

Thanks for the idea; however, that didn't work.

It looks like they're not ready for Centos 6 yet and I'm not ready for 8.0 -- well, it's not even released until
tomorrowand I'm sure that's a whole 'nother battle. I'll just grab the source and give that a try.

Well the below is just one part of the above.

Did you:

etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-redhat-all.repo

[pgdg12-updates-testing]

enabled=1

and then:

yum -y install postgresql12-server postgresql12-contrib

 From your original post I gathered that you went here:

https://yum.postgresql.org/testing/12/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/repoview/

and grabbed individual packages. Is that correct?

Hmm, no, I didn't add the pgdg-redhat-all.repo.

Yes I did grab the RPMs directly as I thought that should have been good enough.
And really, it is as far as the Pg code. The issue is the non-Pg dependencies not
found in the standard Centos.

For the moment, I do have the source and I've compiled it successfully.
That will hold me for now as I change our environment and install scripts
so I can test v12 against our code.

I'll revisit this again when the RC's come out and I'll try your suggestions then.

Thanks for your help, Adrian!
