Re: Installing PostgreSQL 16 on FreeBSD 13.0

Thank you for your reply, I understand I should have may be asked this
question in the FreeBSD community.

Anyway , I had run the command you stated before asking for assistance.
Seems PostgreSQL 16 is not included in the FreeBSD 13.0 repo.

I did also try to upgrade to Release 13.2, but same error again.
