[Bug 1357682] Re: package postgresql-client-9.3 9.3.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 failed to upgrade: alternative pg_basebackup.1.gz can't be slave of psql.1.gz

 

While bug 1428738 is a bug, it's not a regression, this part of the code
hasn't changed in ages. It's mostly the act of restarting postgresql
which exhibits this, which usually happens on package upgrades.

Title:
  package postgresql-client-9.3 9.3.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 failed to
  upgrade: alternative pg_basebackup.1.gz can't be slave of psql.1.gz

Status in postgresql-common package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in postgresql-common source package in Precise:
  Invalid
Status in postgresql-common source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in postgresql-common source package in Vivid:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Error while do-release-upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04

  SRU TEST CASE:
  # Run these commands in a precise schroot:
  apt-get install -y postgresql-9.1 man-db
  echo 'deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ precise-pgdg main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
  apt-get update
  apt-get install -y --force-yes postgresql-9.4
  man pg_basebackup  # this should be for 9.4
  # this will fail with current postgresql-common (backport of 166), but ought to succeed with a fixed package
  dpkg-reconfigure postgresql-9.1
  man pg_basebackup  # this should still be for 9.4
  # after that, this should also succeed
  dpkg-reconfigure postgresql-9.4

  SRU FIX: https://alioth.debian.org/scm/loggerhead/pkg-postgresql
  /postgresql-common/trunk/revision/1591

  SRU REGRESSION POTENTIAL: Errors in the p-common maintainer script can
  potentially lead to complete installation failure of any
  postgresql-X.Y and postgresql-client-X.Y package. The postgresql-X.Y
  autopkgtests will cover this for one version, but for multiple
  versions in parallel this should be manually verified.
