[GENERAL] Can't Drop Role

[Carlos Mennens]

For some reason I'm removed all grants and roles from this users
account but I'm unable to remove / drop him from the database as
follows:

postgres=# \du
 List of roles
 Role name |   Attributes
 | Member of
---++---
 cmennens  | No inheritance, Cannot login   | {}
 jmadeline | Superuser, No inheritance, Create role, Create DB, Replication | {}
 mrbs  | No inheritance | {}
 mwilshaw  | No inheritance | {}
 postgres  | Superuser, Create role, Create DB, Replication | {}
 rcube | No inheritance | {}

postgres=# DROP ROLE cmennens;
ERROR:  role cmennens cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL:  owner of function pg_logfile_rotate()
owner of function pg_file_length(text)
owner of function pg_file_read(text,bigint,bigint)
owner of function pg_logdir_ls()
owner of function pg_file_unlink(text)
owner of function pg_file_rename(text,text)
owner of function pg_file_rename(text,text,text)

You should alter owner of the functions.

Try alter function function_name owner to new_owner;
