Hi the Postgresql binaries and installer are provided by EDB
How can i verify the download

Usually other projects provide a SHA256 hash list to verify the downloads
EDB doesnt seem to provide that, so how else can i verify the download

Thanks
Ali

You can't. You should ask EDB for MD5 or SHA256. Or you should reject
those binaries.
