Sorry for the confusion. This database carries collations from _both_ libc and ICU in pg_collations. The collation in question (br_FR@euro) is _not_ in use (as in being depended on by any in-database object). > How was the database installed? stock Debian apt-get install postgresql-15 (which gives 15.1) followed by CREATE DATABASE "gnumed_v22" with owner = "redacted :-)" template = "template1" encoding = 'unicode'; as "postgres". > In first post you had: > > gnumed_v22=> select *, pg_encoding_to_char(collencoding) from pg_collation where > collname = 'br_FR@euro'; > -[ RECORD 1 ]-------+----------- > oid | 12413 > collname | br_FR@euro > collnamespace | 11 > collowner | 10 > collprovider | c > collisdeterministic | t > collencoding | 16 > collcollate | br_FR@euro > collctype | br_FR@euro > colliculocale | > collversion | 2.35 > pg_encoding_to_char | LATIN9 > > where collprovider c means libc and collversion 2.35. Yeah, that's when I figured that I misspoke about the ICU upgrade. Yes, there was an ICU upgrade, and yes, it did affect collations. Those I was able to fix up (the "reindex / revalidate constraint / refresh collation version" dance). There also was a libc upgrade which also affected locales. Most of them were fixable by that dance but some popped up (such as br_FR@euro) to not be "correctable" showing the "does not exist for encoding" error.
