Dear PostgreSQL Team, I hope you are doing well.
I am currently using PostgreSQL 17 on Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy). I noticed that the system_stats extension is available as an RPM package in the PGDG repository for RHEL 9, but I could not find a corresponding Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) package in the PGDG APT repository. I would like clarification not only about this specific extension, but also about the general packaging policy followed by PostgreSQL.org/PGDG across different operating systems. In particular: - If a package or extension is available in one PGDG repository (for example, RHEL), is it generally expected to be available for other supported platforms like Ubuntu as well? - Are there technical, policy, maintenance, or demand-related reasons why some packages are built only for specific distributions? - Is there any documented guideline that explains how packaging decisions are made across platforms? I would appreciate your clarification on both the specific case of system_stats and the broader packaging policy. Thank you for your time and support. Best regards, Sreekanta Reddy
