I'm new to postgres, I need to download and install pgcrypto extension. I ran below command but nothing happened:

    [root@localhost /]# yum install pgcrypto
   Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.nbrc.ac.in
* extras: mirrors.nhanhoa.com
 * updates: mirror.nbrc.ac.in
No package pgcrypto available.
Error: Nothing to do

Then, I looked to several of commands on google and tried with below:

    [root@localhost ~]# gppkg -r pgcrypto
-bash: gppkg: command not found

I'm using postgres 11.3 on centos. Please let me know appropriate command/link from where I can download/install pgcrypto. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
