I know I am way late to this thread, and I have only tried a cursory
skim of it given the length, but have we made any kind of announcement
(packagers at least?) that we intend to not support Postgres 18 with ssl
on RHEL 7.9 and derivatives? Yes, RHEL 7 just passed EOL, but there is
commercial extended support available until July 2028[1] which means
many people will continue to use it.
