Package: postgresql-common
Version: 34
Severity: important

I am updating my debian unstable and found that postgresql-common
cannot configure since postinst fails. I debugged the problem and it
seems that /usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions
does not recognize any debian release different than 'testing/unstable'
while «lsb_release -rs» give '3.1' on my system.

I added 'set -x' at the start of supported-versions, so now I have this
output:
----------------------------------------------------------
eppesuig3:~# dpkg --configure postgresql-common
Configuro postgresql-common (34) ...
+ type -p lsb_release
++ lsb_release -is
+ DISTRO=Debian
++ lsb_release -rs
+ RELEASE=3.1
+ case "$DISTRO" in
+ lsb_debian 3.1
+ case "$1" in
+ echo 'Unknown Debian release: 3.1'
+ exit 1
dpkg: errore processando postgresql-common (--configure):
 il sottoprocesso post-installation script ha restituito un codice di errore 1
Sono occorsi degli errori processando:

please note that /etc/debian_version contains 'testing/unstable'

Bye,
Giuseppe
