New upstream microreleases 9.1.24, 9.3.15, 9.5.5

9.5.5 should hit Debian unstable RSN, will sync from there to zesty.

Actually no, we can't sync zesty, it'll require a proper upload as Debian already moved to 9.6.

All pass except for mimeo/armhf and postgresql-9.5/armhf. These are fallout from moving from LXC to LXD. For devel I fixed the latter in https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-postgresql/postgresql-common.git/commit/?id=fc40fc34ce -- functionally everything is correct, the test just failed on unexpected stderr output from a warning in netstat.

Yakkety also has a libreoffice regression on i386, but this test is flaky.

http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/trusty/update_excuses.html#postgresql-9.3

All good except for postgresql-9.3 on armhf, same issue as before (the netstat 2>&/dev/null should be backported to postgresql-common to fix that).

http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/precise/update_excuses.html#postgresql-9.1

This never succeeded on precise, but it gets as far as the previous versions.

Thus stable updates are verified.

zesty shows a lot of regressions as postgresql-common claims that 9.6 is the supported version, due to a missing 17.04 entry in supported-versions. I just uploaded a fix (together with the fix for the netstat noise), so it'll still be a day or two until the machinery catches up.

  * New upstream bug fix release (LP: #1637236)
    - Fix WAL-logging of truncation of relation free space maps and visibility
      maps.
      It was possible for these files to not be correctly restored during
      crash recovery, or to be written incorrectly on a standby server. Bogus
      entries in a free space map could lead to attempts to access pages that
      have been truncated away from the relation itself, typically producing
      errors like "could not read block XXX: read only 0 of 8192 bytes".
      Checksum failures in the visibility map are also possible, if
      checksumming is enabled.

      Procedures for determining whether there is a problem and repairing it
      if so are discussed at
         https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Free_Space_Map_Problems.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for postgresql-9.1 has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This bug was fixed in the package postgresql-9.1 - 9.1.24-0ubuntu0.14.04

  * New upstream bug fix release (LP: #1637236). No effective changes for
    PL/Perl, the version must just be higher than the one in precise, to not
    break upgrades.
