You would be better off filing this in Red Hat's bugzilla, because
postgresql-setup is Red Hat's code not the PG community's. However,
I think what you'll be told is that postgresql-setup isn't intended to
handle upgrades across more than one major Postgres version. It certainly
wouldn't have been able to when I worked there, because it's only packaged
with a postmaster executable for the immediately preceding major Postgres
version.
Perhaps you can persuade the guys to redesign the packaging to handle
such cases, but here is not where to ask for it.
