Ah, right, there's also a postgresql10 in SP3.

Use SUSEConnect... "SUSEConnect --list-extensions" will show all available
extensions and the command lines to activate/deactivate them (the SDK
would be registered by running "SUSEConnect -p sle-sdk/12.3/x86_64", but
check first...). Alternatively you could use yast and friends.
You might have to deactivate the PGDG repos and remove those rpms, else
zypper might try to "upgrade" the Suse packages with the PGDG ones.

Else: get PostgreSQL 11 from the PGDG repos and hope Suse doesn't
give you their own postgresql11 packages sometime soon.
