Hi,
the version in Xenial is afaik only postgresql 9.5 (for the server and the
tools).
9.6 would be available in later releases like Ubuntu 17.10 and Ubuntu 18.04 is
already on postgresql-10.
I would not even see how you start to install postgresql-client-9.6 in
xenial without adding non supported out-of-archive repositories.
apt-cache policy postgresql-client-9.5 postgresql-client-9.6
postgresql-client-9.5:
Installed: 9.5.12-0ubuntu0.16.04

Title:
postgresql-client-common is not compatible with current postgresql-
servers
Status in postgresql-common package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi,
i'm using 16.04 xenial as host for applications. Our DB-server was updated
from 9.4 to 9.6 recently and I'm using pg_dump from time to time to clone
databases. But I'm no more able to do that :-(
Right now postgresql-client-common can connect to pg up to version 9.5 . I
tried to install postgresql-client-9.6 manually but I failed because
postgresql-client-9.6 depends on a newer version of libpg5. As a workaround I
tried to manually install the latest version of libpg5 (9.6.7) but another
depenency (libgss...?) failed.
Can you please have a look or even ask upstream about the possibility to
provide postgresql-client for all current server versions (9.6,and 10.2??)
Nevertheless thank you all for providing the software. It works like a
charm
Marc
