Hola Jaime,

what about using pg_dump -Fc -Osx and use pg_restore -l to list
objects. then you can sort and compare objects and then a script that
compare schema of objects extracting them with -P, -T or -t

That appears to be of limited use (i.e., it would only work for functions,
triggers and tables).  pg_restore -L/--use_list is more comprehensive.
So the script would have to do something like the following:

$ pg_dump -Fc -Osx postgis>  postgis.dump
$ pg_restore -l postgis.dump | sort -k4>  postgis.list

why not "sort -k4,5"?

sort -k4 sorts from the fourth field, the object type, to the end of line. -k4,5 would sort on the type and schema name. I want to sort on object name/attributes as well. BTW, I figured out why it doesn't fully work. For functions, the arguments are listed, e.g.,

82; 1255 700618 FUNCTION public _st_covers(geography, geography) jma
459; 1255 700259 FUNCTION public _st_covers(geometry, geometry) jma

Unfortunately, for operators, the operand types are not included:

843; 2617 699799 OPERATOR public < jma
1861; 2617 700565 OPERATOR public < jma

so the pg_restore -L still keeps the original dump order (geometry before geography).
