Hi, everyone
I found dropped columns still exist in pg_attribute table. In the below example I drop c2 column and vacuum (full) this table and pg_attribute, it still exist (the last row). how can I clean it away?
postgres=# select * from pg_attribute where attrelid=16515;
attrelid | attname | atttypid | attstattarget | attlen | attnum | attndims | attcacheoff | atttypmod | attbyval | attstorage | attalign | attnotnull | atthasdef | attisdropped | attislocal | attinhcount
