This PR adds a workaround for Salt issue saltstack/salt#37935 which was introduced in release
2016.11.0
. It seems to be fixed now by PR saltstack/salt#37993, and the fix should be available in the future point release.Till that moment we still have the latest stable Salt packages available at https://repo.saltstack.com which do have mentioned bug. It affects all PostgreSQL versions for RHEL systems installed from the upstream repository.
Proposed workaround is to make sure that the PostgreSQL server binaries also available in the system
$PATH
, as it was done with client executables earlier. It also may be useful for some people managing parts of the installation manually.The
postgresql.manage
state will include a dependency for thepostgres.server
state (which installs binaries) only for particular Salt version2016.11.0
on RHEL platforms.Ping @gravyboat
