"Complaint: Here's the bind the 9.10 upgrade puts postgresql users in: It apparently erases enough of 8.3 so it can't be started, but not so much that a non-expert user can tell, either from command line or boot-up manager, that 8.3 needs to be reinstalled. Also, when attempting to start 8.3 without a reinstall, there are no error messages to tip the user off that anything is wrong. In addition, the fact that 8.3 has been partially removed means that data from 8.3 cannot be accessed and the data cluster can't be upgraded to the newly installed 8.4. This is an unnecessary situation that didn't occur in previous version upgrades."
Of course it's taken me 2 days to find that out.
