No, but it's been true since v14 (cf commit 2432b1a04). In any case, the test case you're showing doesn't look like it'd exercise that behavior, since the SET is installing a new value. I did a bit of testing of the behavior of "application_name=" in the connection string followed by an explicit SET, and AFAICS we do send a ParameterStatus report from the SET, with no apparent change in behavior from quite far back (I tried 9.5 for comparison). So I continue to maintain that this is a pgbouncer problem. Maybe it has not been updated for the no-duplicate-reports server behavior? Although it's still hard to see why that would matter here. regards, tom lane
