Not sure if this may help you. A few months ago, I made an automated OpenSUSE installer which also had to install PostgreSQL 9.6 server using the RHEL PGDG releases. There's no YUM there, so I did it instead with RPM files directly.

The RPM files I included on my autoinstall ISO are the following:

postgresql96-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
postgresql96-contrib-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
postgresql96-devel-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
postgresql96-libs-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
postgresql96-server-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm

Of course, you may want or need to use more recent versions. Also, you may ommit the contrib & devel packages, as they may not always be needed(in my case, they were)

Regarding dependencies, with a quick look, I can say these will require a few common packages:

- zlib
- pthreads
- readline
- openssl
- libxml2
- libxslt
- libuuid
- krb5
- libldap / openldap

That seems to be all required packages. Hope this helps.

Subject: Installing 9.6.6 to a RHEL 6.7 server with no Internet access

Hi.

According to https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ I must first
install the repository.  However, since that system doesn't have Internet
access, I need to manually copy the files from my Windows laptop to the RHEL
6.7 server and then localinstall them.

So, the question: what packages do I need to download from
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.6/redhat/rhel-6.7-x86_64/ in
order to "yum localinstall postgresql96" and "yum localinstall
postgresql96-server"?

Thanks
