I'm guessing from those path names that you are using self-compiled executables, not somebody's packaging? If the latter, whose? I'm confused as to how you got pg_upgrade installed without knowing where it came from.
Tom, Both were buit with scripts from SlackBuilds.org. The 9.0.5 pg_upgrade in /opt/postgresql-9.0.5/contrib/ is datestamped Sep 22, 2011; I don't see that I actually built and installed it or pg_upgrade_support (that's also there as source, but neither built nor installed). Three-and-a-half years later I've no recollection from where I downloaded them.
contrib is part of the main PG distribution. The sources for pg_upgrade would be under contrib/pg_upgrade/ in an unpacked tarball, and pg_upgrade_support lives next door in contrib/pg_upgrade_support/. If you did a "make install" in contrib/ that would've installed both.
A-ha! Running 'pg_upgrade --help' tells me that it is, indeed, installed. And, it is the version for -9.3.3, too. So, this question's been answered.
That's pretty much the base case. If none of the other options appeal to you, don't use 'em.
Nah, nothing looks like I need them. Much appreciated, Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | Have knowledge, will travel.
