I do not fully remember what it was, but they use a feature that was added with 9.6 (used to retrieve data from the database with a more complex query): https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/install/requireme= nts.md#postgresql-requirements If you would like to have more details, there is an issue existing that describe why 9.6 is required in detail, but I do not have the link anymor= e. Maybe it is easier to check what new feature was added with 9.6. I suggest to go to version 11, which seems the be the latest stable version regarding the webpage: https://www.postgresql.org/ There is also good documentation existing how to upgrade: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/upgrading.html If you run FreeBSD at $work you should anyway have your own poudriere build package repository where you have your tested packages in. So you can set there in make.conf DEFAULT_VERSIONS=3Dpgsql=3D9.4 or whatever version you require. So we should not block here to go to a more recent version.
