Actually, I received a few complaints the other day from developers for the
bionic-pgdg/9.6 component when 9.6.21 was pushed, so Saif's issue was not
an isolated incident. At the time, I saw that the 'Packages' file was
similarly last updated in November. Everything looks good now, though.

While I recommend to my teams use the 'main' component for libpq, there
continues to be fear among many that libpq versions mismatched from the
parent database cluster version may cause unexpected issues — even after I
point out that the database cluster itself is using the most recent release
of libpq from the 'main' component.
