Today, when I ran a "dnf update", I got these messages:

Skipping packages with conflicts:
(add '--best --allowerasing' to command line to force their upgrade):
postgresql15 x86_64 15.8-1.fc40 updates 1.7 M
postgresql15-contrib x86_64 15.8-1.fc40 updates 976 k
postgresql15-server x86_64 15.8-1.fc40 updates 6.3 M
Skipping packages with broken dependencies:
postgresql15-docs x86_64 15.8-1.fc40 updates 2.2 M

I can uninstall the old PostgreSQL versions, but I would like to keep them, since
I sometimes have to investigate problems with old versions.

Is that conflict deliberate? I admit that I don't quite understand where it comes from.

Yours,
