Why don't you use postgres 8.4 from lenny-backports?

Lenny comes with postgres 8.3, but you can add postgresql 8.4 from
backports without problem. We have our production servers with lenny and
postgresql 8.4. No issues.

Detailed instructions here:
http://www.backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions

Squeeze is almost ready. So, I think it's better to go with postgres 8.4
now and upgrade lenny to squeeze in a few months without taking care
about postgres in the future.

Hi,

I use Debian GNU/Linux on various servers. Debian Stable a.k.a. Lenny
comes with PostgreSQL v8.3 while Debian Testing a.k.a Squeeze provides
PostgreSQL v8.4.

I need to move some databases written in Psql v8.4 to the stable
production server running v8.3. I tried pg_dump and pg_restore as well
as PgAdmin3.  I am unable to do so due to the backward
incompatibility. Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks in advance.
