Installing postgresql12-devel after postgres12 DB has already been created


I have already installed and loaded a postgres12 instance on Redhat7. Now we need the devel libs to compile additional packages like pg-hash64.

Has anyone installed other packages after postgres instance was already created? Is there any impact to the binaries already installed?

Thanks for any info.


Solution

  • As long as you are using the same source repository there should be no issue.

    I have installed several PostgreSQL package on Centos 7 without any issue from :

    repo id                  repo name                                        status
    !pgdg12/7/x86_64         PostgreSQL 12 for RHEL/CentOS 7 - x86_64         294
    repolist: 294
