Hi,

If I'm checking in the right place
  https://yum.postgresql.org/11/redhat/rhel-7.5-x86_64/

... the version of PL/Java that I'm seeing there is still 1.5.1.

Please forgive this repeat announcement if the 1.5.2 package is already
in the works. It would be valuable to have 1.5.2 packaged, because it
fixes a known bug in java.sql.Date conversion that was in 1.5.1.

Thanks!
-Chap
