This lead me to conclude that we needed to CREATE EXTENSION FROM UNPACKAGED
thinking this might be an upgrade issue.  However no luck.

ext_test=# CREATE EXTENSION tablefunc FROM unpackaged;
ERROR:  function normal_rand(integer, double precision, double
precision) does not exist

by any chance did you create the extension in the template1 database?

The whole extension is not in template1, else "CREATE FROM unpackaged"
would have worked.  But evidently there are at least some conflicting
objects there. I speculate that somebody installed a pre-9.1 version of
the extension in template1, realized their mistake, and then tried to
clean it out manually (piecemeal) instead of using the uninstall script.
And missed some things.

Anyway the solution is to connect to template1 and drop any cruft that's
lying around in it.

I am the user who has the situation - the background is:

- the previous installation on Fedora 14 x86_64 was PostgreSQL 8.x

- there were old (unused) versions of LedgerSMB

- during the move from Fedora 14 to Fedora 16 (x86_64), the data was dumped out of PG 8.x and restored to PG 9.1P

I haven't done any manual messing around with template1 as far as I know . .

Regards,

Phil.
