Hi Devrim,

Currently having the PostgreSQL yum repositories installed is really risky business because it will obsolete many stock packages apart from postgresql-server itself. This is really something you would want to avoid. 

Just checking up on the idea of issuing a warning regarding the non-safe nature of the PostgreSQL yum repository, perhaps on https://yum.postgresql.org and in the yum repo file. Perhaps it is also a good idea to provide a list of conflicting/obsoleting packages?

(Ideally this warning would not be necessary, when there would be a separation of yum repositories into safe and non-safe.)

Kind regards,

Pim Rupert
