If there's a problem with pg_dump then pg_dump needs to be fixed, and
incidentally, Philip Warner has been doing just that.
But claiming that you can't upgrade is painting over what might rather be
a deficiency in the RPM mechanism, ISTM. Why can't you have a spec file
like this:
%preupgrade
pg_dumpall >somewhere
%postupgrade
...
psql -f somewhere
