I followed
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1223270/psql-command-error-postgresql-version-12-is-not-installed
with no luck, apt-purge simply states that pg12 is not installed.
Looks like the cluster was not removed from the pgcommon setup. This
would explain why you can't run psql. By default pgcommon looks for the
version of psql connected with the most recent version of Postgres it
knows about, in this case 12. Unfortunately that binary no longer
exists. You still have psql. Do:
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.5/bin/psql --help
To avoid having to do that try:
sudo pg_dropcluster 12 main

I have a production server running pg9.5 seamlessly.
Yesterday I decided to install libpq to have some crypto functions.
Unexpectedly, it installed postgresql 12 and its libpq.
I don't need pg 12, so I decided to remove it.
It did not went well
root@datastore-1:/home/user# apt-get --purge remove postgresql-client-12

After this, the package is not anymore on the installed list and I'm

How can I repair this?
