I looked at EnterpriseDB a few months ago. The installation errored.
It left stuff in /var/opt, which I consider non-standard for a Red Hat
machine. The whole product just didn't feel clean to me. I admit
that's a pretty limited and subjective evaluation, especially for a beta
product, but I was in the mode of broadly evaluating alternatives, so I
moved on. Maybe I need to look at it again.

Basically I feel more secure tracking the core project, even if I need
to maintain some of my own patches.
