I am attempting to remove a "role" from Postgresql-9.3.6.  I've already
reassigned ownership for the role's tables, functions, sequences, types,
views, etc...  However, I am still unable to remove the role.  Postgresql
reports that "8 objects in the database 'postgres'" depend on this role.

How do I locate the database objects that depend on the 'DEADUSER' so that
I can remedy the situation?

ps- I've tried "REASSIGN OWNED BY DEADUSER TO pgsql;" with no success.


(env vars set for PGDATABASE and PGUSER, target role name changed to
protect the guilty)

# psql -c"drop role DEADUSER;"
ERROR:  role "DEADUSER" cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL:  8 objects in database postgres

# pg_dump --schema-only postgres | grep -i DEADUSER
## No results
