Hello,

I'm wondering if there's a compatibility list of the tools supplied with 
PostgreSQL - e.g. psql seems to be very server version specific (only major or 
also minor versions?).
For pg_dump I'd say users should use the version of the target server if it's 
already installed, but is this also the case if the target server version is 
older? Am I completely wrong? Should I always use the pg_dump from the source 
server? When migrating from 8.1 to 8.2 I get several errors with commands 
regarding creating users and a lib that had been integrated into the core when 
restoring from the source server's pg_dump's dump. When using the target 
server's pg_dump for the dump I don't. But is then really everything okay? And 
pgAdmin comes with its own set of the PostgreSQL tools ...

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/app-pgdump.html

What approach for pg_dump (and other tools) should be recommended?

Thank you very much,

Peter
