SUSE repositories not longer available
I have noticed since the changes on the 27th this month (https://people.planetpostgresql.org/devrim/index.php?/archives/122-Installing-PostgreSQL-on-SLES-15-just-got-easier-and-better!.html) that some repositories are no longer available.
I specifically noticed it with all SuSE 15.4 repositories, and PostgreSQL 16 for SuSE 12.5 repository (also had new dependency problem on PostgreSQL 14+15 for SuSE 12.5, might be unrelated).
To be clear, SuSE 12.5 and 15.4 are currently at LTSS phase.
I haven't found any message regarding PostgreSQL dropping support for SuSE 12.5 and 15.4, so I wanted to make sure whether it was dropped intentionally or not.
If it's not planned to add these repositories back, I will appreciate if there is an archive with these packages available somewhere.
Thanks,

Woops.
Don't worry about it, just used wrong label.
The rest of the world is free to view the message while it can.

I am aware of it, that's not the problem. The problem I have is repositories are non-existent, returning 404 -
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/15/suse/sles-15.4-x86_64/
That's one for instance, it was the same for me for 12-16, and I can't even find a reference of PostgreSQL repo for SUSE 12.5.
I would like to know if it was intentionally removed and no longer supported, I could not find an announcement about dropping support.

I see this:
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/15/suse/
where SLES 15.5 and SLES 12.5 are present.
I would suggest asking over on:
https://www.postgresql.org/list/pgsql-pkg-yum/
they maybe able to sort it out better for you.

I have been told that it might be a better place to ask that question, I will also add that when installing on SUSE 15 SP 4 it attempts to access the repository: https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/zypp/15/suse/sles-15.4-x86_6, and it happens similarly on all versions of PostgreSQL repositories.
PostgreSQL 16 repository for SUSE 12 SP 5 is not mentioned at all at the updated howto: https://zypp.postgresql.org/howtozypp/.

Yes, I removed all of the 15.4 (and older) from the repos this week
intentionally. Per these news:
https://zypp.postgresql.org/news/pgdg-zypp-repo-gpg-key-update/
and
I had to clean up everything old and start a new one, as the previous
repo layout was extremely messy, taking a lot of disk space than we
actually needed and it would take a lot of resources to install SP4 from
scratch, and rebuild packages on that one (and the dependencies would be
more messy)
OTOH, SLES 15 SP5 will be a new starting point, and I'll keep that
directory longer as compared to the previous versions.
I also removed SLES 12 SP4 and older for a different reason. Only SLES
12 SP 5 is there now for SLES 12.
PostgreSQL 16 repository for SUSE 12 SP 5 is not mentioned at all at
the updated howto: https://zypp.postgresql.org/howtozypp/.
See this:
https://zypp.postgresql.org/news/sles12-postgresql-rpms-end-of-life/
I already EOLed PostgreSQL 16 on SLES 12 (and RHEL 7 for the same
reason)
