Even Ubuntu and Windows?

You can do that on any host and use the yum download only or if you want it all use reposync.

Then you can copy the actual RPMS anywhere you want.

Ah.  But I can't do that, since the server is behind many firewalls, and only has access to an internal RHEL mirror.

The "current" binaries are all accessible via web browser (and curl), so it puzzles me why yum-archive isn't.

I opened Redmine issue 7892 to make them available.

The packages you need are definitely on the postgresql yum server. The repository can not be browsed, but if you add the yum repository definition file as documented at the bottom of the page

https://yum.postgresql.org/repopackages/#pgredhatoldrepos

you will be able to do a "yum install amcheck_next96" easily.

cat << EOF > /etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-96.repo

amcheck was not part of the Postgres source tree until v10.

It might exist in some form for 9.6, but you'd have to look
outside the standard distribution channels

amcheck_next96 binary RPM were absolutely distributed by download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.6/redhat/rhel-6.

I downloaded amcheck_next96-1.4.1 when I downloaded 9.6.22, but did not download amcheck_next96-1.4.5 with 9.6.24.

If push comes to shove, I can probably install the 1.4.1 RPM along side 9.6.24.
