Description

I try to install a Rudder server on RHEL8, but I get this following error:

root@server:~# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/rudder.repo
[Rudder_8.0-nightly]
name=Rudder 8.0-nightly
baseurl=http://repository.rudder.io/rpm/8.0-nightly/RHEL_8/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://repository.rudder.io/rpm/rudder_rpm_key.pub
root@server:~# yum install rudder-server

Error: 
 Problem: package rudder-server-8.0.0.alpha2.git202308180211-1.EL.8.x86_64 requires postgresql-server >= 13, but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - package postgresql-server-13.2-1.module_el8.4.0+701+c3c42fce.x86_64 is filtered out by modular filtering
  - package postgresql-server-13.3-1.module_el8.5.0+825+b0b60c92.x86_64 is filtered out by modular filtering

(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

This is awaited because Rudder 8.0 required postgres 13. We need to document:

- add postgresql repo:

dnf install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm

- disable base postgresql repos:

dnf module disable postgresql

Install rudder server:

dnf install rudder-server
