It would perhaps be useful to add optional --old-confdir and
--new-confdir parameters to pg_upgrade. If these parameters are absent
then pg_upgrade would work as it does now and assume that the config
files are in the datadir.
It should work the same way the postmaster itself works: If the given
directory is not a data directory, look for the postgresql.conf file and
look there for the location of the data directory.
That would make sense to me (I actually tried setting the datadirs based
on that assumption). It would require adding that feature to pg_upgrade
and tweaking the docs for --XXX-datadir but would not require any new
parameters.
Cheers,
