That might be a bit of a stretch. You could try downloading the SRPM
from the ftp site and building
and RPM. However you may have to update some packages. 7.2 is *really*,
ahem, *really* old.

Sincerely,

As somebody who works for Red Hat, I would strongly advise getting a
newer OS release. You can probably build modern releases of PG to
work on that, but why?

You should be able to build current versions from source on old versions
of Redhat.
However, RH 7.2 isn't even getting legacy support any more, are you sure
you want to be using that instead of something that gets some support?
