Buildfarm code patches do not belong in the Commitfest, I have marked
the item as rejected. You can send me patches directly or add a PR to
the buildfarm's github repo.

In this case the issue on drongo was a typo, the fix for which I had
forgotten to propagate back in December. Note that the buildfarm's
TestUpgrade.pm module is only used for branches < 15. For branches >= 15
we run the standard TAP test and this module does nothing.

More generally, the collection of logs etc. for pg_upgrade will improve
with the next release, which will be soon after I return from a vacation
in about 2 weeks - experience shows that making releases just before a
vacation is not a good idea :-)

cheers
