Is there a specific reason for that? My current approach for upgrades
was dumping the old database using the old pg_dump, uninstalling the
old Postgres, installing the new one and restore from the old dump.
That way I didn't accidently mix-up installations or use wrong tools
or such.
Did pg_dump have bugs in the past which resulted in pg_restore not
being able to read the dumps?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Thorsten Schöning
