Hi Sven,

I appreciate you are between a rock and a hard place. Unfortunately, I 
cannot really help here. My mail was of administrative nature to ensure 
we had bugs that captured the problems observed.

Perharps debian-devel or other people that would be in similar 
situations can help. Concretely, I suspect the postgres/mariaDB 
maintainers would have been in a similar situation at some point (I 
think PostgreSQL has a yearly bump of data base format). Personally, I 
would probably reach out to the PostgreSQL maintainers / check the PG 
packaging.

Best regards,
Niels
