Better PostgreSQL for cPanel & WHM

This Plugin aims to bring extended support for more recent PostgreSQL versions to cPanel & WHM. The approach is very similar to what already exists for MySQL -- we will be installing from community repositories which already build the server for CentOS.

INSTALLING

Two methods exist for accomplishing installs.

End user (stable) installs:

Add the Troglodyne yum repository to /etc/yum.repos.d/troglodyne:

[troglodyne]
name=Troglodyne Internet Widgets
mirrorlist=https://repos.troglodyne.net/CentOS/7/$basearch/mirrorlist
enabled=1

Install the RPM: yum install BetterPostgres4cP
Enjoy. There should now be a "PostgreSQL Upgrade" page within WHM now for root under the 'Plugins' section.
To uninstall: yum remove BetterPostgres4cP

This way whenever I make a new release you'll get it via yum update without any real hassle.

Developer install:

Clone the repository using the link in github: git clone https://github.com/Troglodyne-Internet-Widgets/better-postgres4cP.git
Move into the directory it cloned this to: cd better-postgres4cp
Run the makefile: make
To uninstall: make uninstall

...and last of all, see license terms.

BUGS

Once you upgrade postgres, the global cache for cPanel will no longer think PostgreSQL is installed. I am currently not aware of a way to fix this, but I am looking into it.

Other Ambitions

Why not bring other useful extensions to postgres (like PostGIS)? Why not facilitate clustering or at least PG connection pooling & remote PGSQL?
