Thank you, Tom. I was unaware of the fact that extensions are installed
to specific schemas.
For future users who might face this issue, I fixed it by re-creating
the extension in the pg_catalog schema, which is always in the
search_path [1]:
DROP EXTENSION pg_trgm;
CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm SCHEMA pg_catalog;
Thanks again,
Igal
