# Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL 13.23 ({{date.13_23}})

[Installation](../installing.md){.md-button}

--8<-- "release-notes-intro.md"

This release of Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL is based on [PostgreSQL 13.22](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/release-13-22.html).

## Release Highlights

### End-of-life

This is the last release of Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL 13.x as it enters end-of-life.

### Tarball updates

The binary tarballs for x86_64 and ARM64 architectures have been updated in this release. The following libraries and components have new versions:

- LIBXSLT: 1.1.43
- LUA: 5.3.6
- LIBTIFF: 4.7.0
- EXPAT: 2.5.0
- PGPOOL: 4.6.2
- PGBACKREST: 2.56.0
- PATRONI: 4.0.6

See [Install Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL from binary tarballs](../tarball.md) for the download links.

The [installation preconditions for tarballs](../tarball.md) now include an extra step for RHEL, Rocky Linux, or Oracle Linux 10: installing the `acl` package.

## Known Issue

### For minor & major upgrades (RHEL only)

During an upgrade on RHEL, you may encounter the following error:

```
Unknown Error occurred: Transaction test error:
file /usr/share/postgresql-common/server/postgresql.mk from install of percona-postgresql-common conflicts with file from package percona-postgresql-common-dev
file /usr/share/postgresql-common/t/040_upgrade.t from install of percona-postgresql-common conflicts with file from package percona-postgresql-common-dev
```

To resolve this, remove the `percona-postgresql-common-dev` package and reinstall it with the new intended upgraded PPG/PSP server.
