CentOS 7 OSM Tile Server - PostgreSQL install conflict error

We just got a new CentOS 7 VM spun up and started setting up our server for an OSM tile server. Attempting to install and configure PostgreSQL with the following command:

 yum install postgresql94-server postgresql94-devel postgis2_94 postgis2_94-docs postgis2_94-utils pgrouting_94

I receive the following Transaction check error:

Transaction check error:
  file /usr/pgsql-9.4/lib/liblwgeom.so from install of postgis24_94-2.4.6-4.rhel7.x86_64 conflicts with file from package postgis22_94-2.2.7-1.rhel7.x86_64

What am I missing here? I understand the errors are stating there is a conflict between two version of postgis 24 and 22 but how would I go about remedying the conflict?

Thanks in advance.

I'd suggest using more recent version of PostgreSQL since the support for 9.4 will end in next year.

The PostgreSQL community will stop releasing updates for the 9.4.X release series in February 2020. Users are encouraged to update to a newer release branch soon.

Well, since you seem to have the postgis22_94-2.2.7-1.rhel7.x86_64 installed and you want to use a different version, I'd suggest removing the undesired version before installing the new one.

Also, if I remember correctly different major versions of PostgreSQL are actually packaged in a way that let's installing e.g 10 and 9.6 on the same machine without conflicts (since the binaries will reside in different directories).
