Hello Listmembers,

during a routine postgresql upgrade from 14 to 17 on a Debian 12 Server
I stumbled over this behaviour:

The Server is Running Debian 12 and the postgresql.org apt repository.
Until today the Server was running Postgresql 14 and an upgrade to
postgresql 17 was planned. In the past I used to install the new version
in parallel and migrated the data. Today I noticecd the post install
steps did not run. No cluster was bootstrapped, no config directory
created, no systemd unit created. There was also an upgrade planned to
Debian 13, so I did this first, and tried again. Same result.

I confirmed on a fresh Debian 13 server and the result is the same.
Please find the console log of the fresh Debian 13 Server attached.

Kind Regards,
Simon
