Comment 1 rhel-process-autobot 2025-08-12 13:57:12 UTC
This issue is purely informational, you do not need to take any action. Thank you for your work maintaining postgis in EPEL 9. Red Hat considers this package important enough to promote it to official RHEL. It will be part of RHEL 9.7. Please do not update postgis in EPEL 9 so the RHEL version can have a higher version and release. When RHEL 9.7 is released, EPEL automation will remove postgis from EPEL 9 and close this bug.

Please also do not update postgis in EPEL 10 either.  I was expecting a separate bugzilla to get filed for that, but it seems to have been missed because in RHEL 10 the source package name is planned to be postgresql16-postgis.

Comment 3 Troy Dawson 2025-09-10 19:06:47 UTC
EPEL 10 bug has been opened for postgis.

Comment 4 Troy Dawson 2025-11-20 18:34:35 UTC
postgis is now in RHEL9 as of RHEL 9.7.
It has been retired from EPEL9.
It will take a day or two before it is out of the epel9 repositories and mirrors.
