" PostgreSQL RPM repo stopped adding new packages to the RHEL 7 repo as
of Aug 2023, including PostgreSQL 16.

We will maintain older major releases until each major release is EOLed
by PostgreSQL project. Please visit here for latest release dates for
each major release.

If you have any questions, please either email to
pgsql-pkg-yum(at)lists(dot)postgresql(dot)org, or create a ticket at our redmine. "
