Description

We've been pulling the image quay.io/centos7/postgresql-12-centos7 using the latest tag for quite awhile, but within the last week or so that tag seems to have disappeared. https://quay.io/repository/centos7/postgresql-12-centos7:centos7 and other tags seem to still exist.

Hi, we stopped rebuilding the centos7 sclorg images a long time ago - because the in-this-context-upstream centos7 images stopped the rebuilds too. It no longer holds that sclorg centos7 images are "latest", several of them contain vulnerabilities, as they were not rebuilt with fixed rpms.

However, these images are still available at quay.io, but under different tags. Feel free to use them (e.g., with combination with yum update), if you consider such image to be appropriate for your use-case.
