Public bug reported:

pg_upgrade is now the preferred mechanism for doing database major
revision upgrades, and has been around for several major revisions. It
allows major revision upgrades to take minutes, instead of hours or days
for larger databases required by the traditional dump/restore process.
The existing Debian pg_upgradecluster tool uses the traditional
dump/restore process.

Under Debian and Ubuntu, database clusters created using
pg_createcluster put the configuration files in a non-standard location
(from PostgreSQL's perspective), and the pg_upgrade tool provides no
mechanism for specifying where this is.
