Hello everyone, 

We are using postgresql v12 and added the pg_repack package

Since I cannot stop other process, I use the “--no-kill-backend” and Pg_repack 
will wait indefinitly until pg_repack get the lock

I get sometimes a problem of lock:

sometimes, I get indefinitly this message : “NOTICE: Waiting for 1 transactions 
to finish. First PID: xxxx”

this is a real problem because the database is usd all the time.
If I kill the process, a trigger on source table will still exist and  
temporary tables and type still exists in the repack schema. The tables are not 
empty if data has been modified in the source table during the repack.

If I drop table repack tables, I will loose all data modifications done on 
source table
how can I properly cleanup the database ?

Hope this is clear and that somebody can help

best raegards,
Nicolas
