SLES 15 SP6 support is now available

Hi,

Just pushed packages built against SLES 15 SP6 to zypp.postgresql.org.
All default links now point to 15.6 . Packages for SLES 15 SP5 are still
available.

Hello Devrim,

I am trying to install PostgreSQL 16.3 on SLES 16 SP6. After the successful installation and cluster initialization i am not able to start the cluster due to /run/postgresql not found. It looks like we forgot to bundle the required directory.

They are not our packages. Please run

zypper refresh

and try again. Our packages have PGDG tag.

Hello Devrim,

You are right. My initial installation was done through the SUSE LLC vendor repository because it is built in. After refreshing, it is now working fine and picking up the latest postgresql16-server package from the pgdg repository.

For the installation, I am following the steps outlined on https://zypp.postgresql.org/howtozypp/. Current steps written with some breaks like SLES 15 SP 6: SLES 15 SP 5: SLES 12: etc. These steps look good, but is it possible to make the installation steps more interactive, like those on other platforms?

BTW this was my fault -- I accidentally excluded PostgreSQL RPMs built
against SP6 while uploading the new packages. Noticed that while testing
on a fresh VM after your email. Sorry about the inconvenience and thanks
for the quick test!

Cheers,
