Postgresql – installation of postgis33_15 on Rocky Linux 8 fails

When I try to install postgis33_15 on Rocky Linux 8, I end up with the following error

package postgis33_15-3.3.1-1.rhel8.x86_64 from pgdg15 requires gdal35-libs >= 3.5.2, but none of the providers can be installed
 package postgis33_15-3.3.1-1.rhel8.x86_64 from pgdg15 requires libgdal.so.31()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
...
 conflicting requests
  - nothing provides libarmadillo.so.10()(64bit) needed by gdal35-libs-3.5.3-4.rhel8.x86_64 from pgdg-common

internet suggests to enable EPEL and crb, but it’s already done (CRB is showing up under name powertools)

sudo dnf repolist
repo id        repo name
appstream      Rocky Linux 8 - AppStream
baseos         Rocky Linux 8 - BaseOS
epel           Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 - x86_64
extras         Rocky Linux 8 - Extras
pgdg-common    PostgreSQL common RPMs for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
pgdg12         PostgreSQL 12 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
pgdg13         PostgreSQL 13 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
pgdg14         PostgreSQL 14 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
pgdg15         PostgreSQL 15 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
pgdg16         PostgreSQL 16 for RHEL / Rocky / AlmaLinux 8 - x86_64
powertools     Rocky Linux 8 - PowerTools

so now I wonder what am I missing 🙂 Any suggestions are appreciated!

    Download ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/archive.fedoraproject.org/epel/8.8.2023-11-14/Everything/x86_64/Packages/a/armadillo-10.8.2-1.el8.x86_64.rpm

    Install rpm -ivh armadillo-10.8.2-1.el8.x86_64.rpm or rpm -Uvh --oldpackage armadillo-10.8.2-1.el8.x86_64.rpm

    dnf install postgis33_15 --exclude=armadillo*

    or wait for update from PostgreSQL repo

    I also have the same problem. I am trying to install Rocky Linux 8, postgresql15, and postgis34_15. armadillo10 can be solved with the answer above.

    However, the dependent hdf5 library poses an additional problem. gdal36-libs is linked to the latest version of hdf5, but armadillo10 is linked to the old version of hdf5, so gdal36 cannot be installed as a result.

    It seems that armadillo was recently updated from version 10 to version 12 in epel 8.

    I think I have no choice but to build and install postgis from the source code or wait for the postgresql repo to be newly distributed.

    Can someone please ask me to build it on postgresql repo? Or do you know how to ask for it?
