Control: severity -1 serious

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of postgresql-q3c the autopkgtest of gavodachs 
fails in testing during installation of gavodachs-server when that 
autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of postgresql-q3c from 
unstable. It passes when run with only packages from testing. In tabular 
form:

                        pass            fail
postgresql-q3c         from testing    2.0.1-5
gavodachs              from testing    2.11+dfsg-2
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. Normally I 
would file a new report for issues like this, but the symptoms look very 
much like bug 984555, so I decided to update that. If think this is a 
new bug, let me know and I file another one. gavodachs2-server currently 
fails to install in unstable too.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of a bunch of 
packages to testing [1] as postgresql-q3c gets pulled in from unstable 
even if not explicitly asked by the migration software; I very much 
assume because the default postgresql got recently updated and the 
version of postgresql-q3c in unstable was rebuild to support the new 
version. Can you please investigate the situation?
