Hi Team,

I have question on the postgres install process. Tried to read the archives
but couldn't find it.

I wanted to install postgres server via rpm and wanted to store the
binaries under non default location like /pgbin.

The rpm package (at least not those available at yum.postgresql.org) are
not relocatable:

rpm -qpi postgresql12-12.0-1PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm | grep Relocations
Relocations : (not relocatable)

So unfortunately, you'll have to build your own packages, or something
like that.

regards
