It looks like the catalog version has changed between 9.5alpha1 and
9.5alpha2:
FATAL: database files are incompatible with server
DETAIL: The database cluster was initialized with CATALOG_VERSION_NO 201506282,
but the server was compiled with CATALOG_VERSION_NO 201507281.
HINT: It looks like you need to initdb.
Normally, one would use pg_upgradecluster to do the upgrade, but
pg_upgradecluster assumes that the old and new version are installed in
parallel. Likewise, the low-level tool pg_upgrade needs the old bindir,
if I read the man-page correctly, and of course, apt-get upgrade
overwrites that, since it's just two versions of the same package
(unlike a major upgrade which is a new package).
So, what's the best way to do the upgrade?
* Copy the bindir before the upgrade (or restore from backup) to a safe
place and do pg_upgrade?
* Initdb a new cluster and restore yesterdays backup?
* Something else?
