1) Well the public schema was in the dump, so the OP wanted it.
2) It also existed in the target database.
3) The error let you know 1) & 2)
4) To my way of thinking it was a 'no harm, no foul' situation where the
error just informed you that the target database took a side track to
get where you wanted to be anyway.
I see this sort of thing in monitoring systems e.g. environmental
controls all the time. Things get flagged because they wander over set
points intermittently. It is technically an error but unless they stay
over the line it is just another data point.
