From the PostgreSQL home page there is a link to:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release-8-2-17.html
Which contains a migration section, saying this:
| A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.2.X. However, if

| release notes for 8.2.14.
The migration section of:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release-8-2-14.html
says:
| A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.2.X. However, if
| you have any hash indexes on interval columns, you must REINDEX

Since you're not running Windows, that last one does not affect you;
so, after stopping the server under 8.2.3 and starting it with
8.2.17, you need to rebuild any GiST indexes and rebuild any hash
indexes on interval columns.
