I am trying to do a simple backup of my PostGreSql 12 database via 
pgAdmin4 (v 8.12) on Ubuntu 22.04

In Preferences I have the path for PostGre 12 set to '/usr/bin/', and I 
have confirmed that that pg_dump utility exists in /usr/bin directory, 
and I can run pg_dump from the command line.

However when I select 'backup' for my database in pgAdmin4, it generates 
an error saying `/usr/bin/pg_dump' not found (despite it being there).

What is the problem here ?
