Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'pgdg17': Cannot download
repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried

indeed the url is broken...see excerpt from repo config

[pgdg17]
name=PostgreSQL 17 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/17/redhat/rhel-$releasever-$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/PGDG-RPM-GPG-KEY-RHEL
repo_gpgcheck = 1


real url scheme is this, does not correspond with above ...not sure why is
this...

https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/17/redhat/rhel-8-ppc64le/

please fix it up if possible
