Ran into an issue trying to help a customer get PostgreSQL running on
CentOS7.

https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/

Specifically when they got to the Post Installation instructions. The way
the headings are arranged makes this look like a completely distinct set of
instructions when they're in fact specifically only for the distro provided
packages. Had me confused a bit as well since I couldn't figure out how
they got the initialization command without the full path as well as
non-versioned service names. Seems it just needs to be made more clear that
these instructions are ONLY for the distro provided packages.
