The most reliable and preferred procedure is to use the _new_ version's

Andrew,
Using the SlackBuilds.org script with an updated version number
worked for
11.1. So, I'll install it on the old desktop and upgrade in place. Then I
can use the 11.1 pg_dumpall on the data directory and copy that over to the
new desktop.
pg_dumpall is going to need to run against a Postgres server not just a
data directory. If both your old and new machines are on the same
network, why not just point the 11.1 pg_dumpall(on the new machine) at
the 9.5 server running on the old machine?
Thanks,
Rich
