[Karsten Hilbert]

Package: postgresql-common
Version: 186
Severity: important

Hello,

when upgrading

	Ver Cluster Port Status Owner    Data directory               Log file
	9.6 main    5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/9.6/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.6-main.log

like so:

	root at hermes:~/bin# pg_upgradecluster 9.6 main

the following happens:

	Use of uninitialized value $ctype in scalar chomp at /usr/share/perl5/PgCommon.pm line 947.
	Use of uninitialized value $collate in scalar chomp at /usr/share/perl5/PgCommon.pm line 948.
	Error: could not get cluster locales
	root at hermes:~/bin#

Anything else I can provide ?

Karsten
