Philip, I'm trying to make the process you describe automatic.
A script reads objects definitoin from an .sql file
and automatically deletes linkes from 'listfile' corresponding
to objects already found in the given .sql file.
As for my problem (detecting CASTS) I had to support
lines in the form:
From PG73:552; 2663984 CAST bytea (public.wkb)
From PG74:547; 1915318 CAST CAST (public.wkb AS bytea)
Since these two dumps have same file format version I asked..
--strk;
