Hi Daniel,

this is (mostly) a user error. You could have avoided it by having the
"postgresql-contrib" meta package installed.

I'll try to think of a way we can make pg_upgradecluster warn the user
if the set of postgresql-$oldversion packages installed is a superset
of postgresql-$newversion packages.
