Raise minimum postgres supported version in MediaWiki 1.39 from 9.4 to 10.0
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We currently claim to support pg 9.4, but we currently test only in 11 (specifically 11.14). 9.4 has been EOL for a while; let's raise this to reflect tested reality.

(Suggestions about specifically what version should instead be used are welcome.)

We might want to do another bump maybe to 10 or more. 9.5 was done to unblock the clean up.

Yeah, 9.5 is also EOL.

buster comes with 11 but 10 is still supported (until November), so bumping to ten sounds good to me.

Unfortunately we'll have to wait for the release, yeah. Part of the standard process, but I'll make a specific task for the DB updates as it's rare we have to actually update them.
