New release with PG16 support about pgtap

[theory]

Boom

[theory]

I'll put some time into it this week; it has been a while!

I'm updating the pgxn-tools Docker image, but Weirdly getting these errors running sudo sh apt.postgresql.org.sh -i -t -v 16.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 postgresql-16 : Depends: postgresql-client-16 but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: postgresql-common (>= 252~) but 248 is to be installed
                 Depends: libpq5 (>= 16~~) but 15.3-0+deb12u1 is to be installed
                 Recommends: sysstat but it is not going to be installed
 postgresql-server-dev-16 : Depends: libpq-dev (>= 16~~) but 15.3-0+deb12u1 is to be installed
                            Depends: postgresql-client-16 but it is not going to be installed

Is this issue specific to Bookworm, perhaps?

Does running without -t work better? The *-pgdg-testing suites have a lower apt pin priority so apt is in some situations reluctant to pick packages from there.

[theory]

No, I added the -t to try to fix this issue.

[theory]

WTF, that did fix it. o_O.

Okay, got that deployed and the v16 tests now pass, but not the upgrades, which fail on this command:

$ apt-get install -qq -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" postgresql-16 postgresql-server-dev-16

Package 'postgresql-server-dev-16' has no installation candidate

I tried removing postgresql-server-dev-16, but it still errors with:

Package 'postgresql-16' has no installation candidate

Works okay with 15. Maybe there's some way to use apt.postgresql.org.sh instead? This is to install a second version alongside the first and run it on a separate port so we an test an upgrade…

[theory]

Yup, that did it. Thanks!

[theory]

Done

[df7cb]

Thanks, the Debian packages are also happy now!
