(10.4 isn't a major version, it's the fourth minor/patch release of the
v10 major version).

If you don't have the `| cut -c 1-2' in your Makefile then you're
probably looking at the wrong branch, the pglogical master branch on
github is stale, you need (for reasons that escape me) the REL2_x_STABLE
branch. Or probably the 2.2.0 release tarball would work just as fine.

I assume those failues are addressed in the above branch/release as
well, but I have not verified that.
