I have several installation of postgres 14 and 17 on Rocky
Linux 9 from the postgres.org repo. I am not able to update
the postgresql17-contrib package to the latest version
(17.7), it gives me this error :

Error:
 Problem: cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides libcrypto.so.3(OPENSSL_3.4.0)(64bit)
needed by postgresql17-contrib-17.7-1PGDG.rhel9.x86_64 from
pgdg17

It's a similar error with pgdg14.

Any hints ?

The latest release from RedHat, that came out this month is

$ rpm -q --whatprovides 'libcrypto.so.3(OPENSSL_3.4.0)(64bit)'
Openssl-libs-3.5.1-3.el9.x86_64

At our site we freeze deployment of packages at the beginning of the month so that our prod hosts get the same packages that were updated/deployed in our dev environments.

This package, frozen from the beginning of the month is only
openssl-libs-3.2.2-6.el9_5.1.x86_64

which does not satisfy this requirement. On a system that has the actual latest packages from RedHat this package has been updated to
openssl-libs-3.5.1-3.el9.x86_64

% rpm -q --whatprovides 'libcrypto.so.3(OPENSSL_3.4.0)(64bit)'
openssl-libs-3.5.1-3.el9.x86_64

If you update to the latest packages on your host, this requirement will be satisfied.

openssl-libs is at 3.2.2.6.el9_5.1 and has no update. I
suppose that it's a downstream from RH problem ?

Yes, it is a rocky/alma problem:

Devrim mentions a fix in the second post.

I'm having the same problem with RHEL 9.6: our enterprise hasn't yet
updated its internal repos to 9.6.
