that is indeed stale, thanks for spotting that. The problem is present
in the other distributions as well. I have now manually updated
bionic-pgdg, but I will leave the other untouched until I can figure
out why reprepro isn't maintaining those files properly by itself.

That said, you shouldn't worry about libpq5 11 - using the 13 version
from the "main" repository component is the recommended way. I guess
the fact that no one has spotted that problem before means no one is
actually using the "11" and the other versioned components.

So the recommendation would be to use "bionic-pgdg main" in
sources.list.
