Martin,
So I accidentally accepted postgresql-9.4_9.4.3-0ubuntu0.14.10 in utopic-proposed before wily was uploaded. I cancelled the build and removed the packages, so please re-upload this version when you can.
Thanks,

wily will be synced from sid as soon as Christopher uploads it (presumably over the weekend, maybe on Monday); but I thought we could accept packages into -proposed before that, just not release them? Anyway, precise is the most urgent here, the others can wait for a bit.

Utopic reuploaded with version bump: postgresql-9.4 9.4.3-0ubuntu0.14.10.1

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-9.4/9.4.3-1

As a part of the Stable Release Updates quality process a search for Launchpad bug reports using the version of postgresql-9.3 from trusty-proposed was performed and bug 1462302 was found. Please investigate this bug report to ensure that a regression will not be created by this SRU. In the event that this is not a regression remove the "verification-failed" tag from this bug report and tag 1462302 "bot-stop-nagging". Thanks!

I ran the test case (SEGV postmaster and restart) and confirm that it now works again with the -proposed packages. I also ran the autopkgtest on precise. Trusty's ran in CI: https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/trusty-adt-postgresql-9.3/

This bug was fixed in the package postgresql-9.1 - 9.1.17-0ubuntu0.12.04

---------------
postgresql-9.1 (9.1.17-0ubuntu0.12.04) precise-proposed; urgency=medium

  * New upstream bug fix release (LP: #1461425)
    - Avoid failures while fsync'ing data directory during crash restart.

      In the previous minor releases we added a patch to fsync everything in
      the data directory after a crash. Unfortunately its response to any
      error condition was to fail, thereby preventing the server from starting
      up, even when the problem was quite harmless. An example is that an
      unwritable file in the data directory would prevent restart on some
      platforms; but it is common to make SSL certificate files unwritable by
      the server. Revise this behavior so that permissions failures are
      ignored altogether, and other types of failures are logged but do not
      prevent continuing.

postgresql-9.1 (9.1.17-0ubuntu0.14.04) trusty-proposed; urgency=medium

  * New upstream bug fix release (LP: #1461425). No effective changes for
    PL/Perl, the version must just be higher than the one in precise, to not
    break upgrades.

https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-postgresql-9.4/ and https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/vivid-adt-postgresql-9.4/ succeeded for 9.4.3.

Note the three test regressions for utopic:
https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-orafce/lastBuild/
https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-pgsql-asn1oid/lastBuild/
https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/utopic-adt-skytools3/lastBuild/

They now fail because of
 + unrecognized value "all;" for "ECHO"; assuming "none"

This warning got introduced into the previous postgresql microrelease (9.4.2) already. The tests have an invalid semicolon after the "all", which got fixed in their trunks/debian unstable/wily etc., but not yet in the stable packages. It's not a functional regression.
