Hi Otto,
I can not reproduce this.
Upgrade from:
- 10.1.23-9+deb9u1 to 10.1.24-6 > OK
- 10.1.23-9+deb9u1 to 10.1.34-1 > OK
This was added to my sources.list:

Some questions that comes to my head:
- what was the content of the DB (size, number of tables)?
- does this append with an empty DB?
- in the case that the DB is huge, could it be related to this?
