I was doing a check on updates available on my Centos 8 server and dnf is
telling me that Postgresql 15 is available.

I thought it was only at the RC1 state, but here's what I get:

PostgreSQL 15 for RHEL / Rocky 8 - x86_64 17 B/s | 195 B 00:11

PostgreSQL 15 for RHEL / Rocky 8 - x86_64 1.6 MB/s | 1.7 kB 00:00

Importing GPG key 0x442DF0F8:
Userid : "PostgreSQL RPM Building Project <pgsql-pkg-yum@postgresql.org

"

Fingerprint: 68C9 E2B9 1A37 D136 FE74 D176 1F16 D2E1 442D F0F8
From : /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-PGDG

It doesn't indicate this as being RC1, is this in error?

Looks like it's official ? - https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/15.0/

Then it looks like the postgresql home page is out of date, it still says
RC1 is official as of Sep 29th with a planned release date of October 13th.

No, that's just the RC1 version. Note the "Release date:" line is still
not set.

This highlights an interesting thing with the website that I hadn't noticed
before, the release notes in the docs show the yellow "unsupported version"
banner while the release notes from the quick link menu does not:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/release-15.html

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/15.0/

We should probably make those also show the same banner to avoid confusion like
this.

Having RPMs available for an RC version seems premature to me. This is the
first site I've run where I've installed postgresql via dnf, will it run
the upgrade script when it installs a new release?
