xenial (16.04) is a LTS release with support until 2021-04, and the current plan was to support it. I now realize that's semi-close to the 13 release date, but so far we have tried to really support all PG-Distro combinations. I could probably arrange for that test to be disabled when building for xenial, but it'd be nice if there were a configure switch or environment variable for it so we don't have to invent it. > > Ubuntu bionic fails elsewhere [ apparently in 006_logical_decoding.pl ] > > Hmm. Not related to this thread then. But if that's reproducible, It has been failing with the same output since Jan 2, 2020, noon. > somebody should have a look.
