Hi David and Kevin, thank you for your helpful input!
You are right: Some of my tests to apply the dump to a fresh 8.2.5
instance were done using recent tools. I thought this is not a problem
or even: the better choice, since the official Postgres Docs seems to
suggest this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/upgrading.html:
"""
It is recommended that you use thepg_dumpandpg_dumpallprograms from the
newer version ofPostgreSQL, to take advantage of enhancements that might
have been made in these programs. Current releases of the dump programs
can read data from any server version back to 7.0.
"""
But you are right: When I use only 8.2.5 tools, these kind of issues do
not happen! Thank you.
Best regards,
Marc
