Hello
postgresql-dump get pids using ps but it could fail if the ps output is
modified by environment variable PS_FORMAT. To correct the problem you
should replace
ps ax
by
ps ax --format "pid,comm"
or insert a "unset PS_FORMAT" at the begining of the script.
see patch below:
diff /usr/lib/postgresql/bin/postgresql-dump

< pm_pid=`ps ax --format "pid,comm"| grep -s postmaster | grep -v
grep | awk '{print $1}'`
---
> pm_pid=`ps ax | grep -s postmaster | grep -v grep | awk '{print
> $5}'`
