The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 15275
Logged by: Alexandre Marquis
Email address: alexandre(dot)marquis(at)mamot(dot)gouv(dot)qc(dot)ca
PostgreSQL version: 10.0
Operating system: Windows
Description:

I've got a trigger whose purpose is to create a postgres user every time an
employee is added to my employee table. If I use my SUPERUSER account to add
an employee it doesn't work because I've got NOCREATEROLE instead of
CREATEROLE. But according to the CREATE ROLE docs at
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/sql-createrole.html, " You must
have CREATEROLE privilege or be a database superuser to use this command."
so as a superuser this should work.

Thx for the help!
