Users with with hundreds or thousands of servers and various ancient
maintenance scripts lying around in hard-to-track ways are not going be
able to get everything upgraded to the latest minors *and* new script
versions any time soon. Until they do, they are effectively blocked
from introducing PG12 into their environment. This is very complicated
and risky for them. I think we should revert the part that requires
using -f - at least for PG12.
