Here:

https://github.com/pgaudit/pgaudit/tree/REL_16_STABLE

I don't see any provision for doing an update from one version to another.

Which is true:

name | default_version | installed_version |
pg_cron | 1.6 | 1.6

You can't update as it does not exist.

How did you do the upgrade from 12.7 to 16.1?

FYI, per here:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/PostgreSQLReleaseNotes/postgresql-release-calendar.html

RDS is up to Postgres 16.4, which is the latest minor release and what
you should be using.
