They should all be owned by the user. I did the restore to the source DB
with that user.

That didn't help.
Before I wrote to the list I searched archived and tried the following
line options:
--no-privileges --no-owner --no-reconnect

Before I tried the options above it also complained about an error to the
public schema, but that did not happen with the options above, however it
still had problems trying to set one sequence. I ended up doing that one
sequence with the superuser. Perhaps somehow I created that one sequence
with the superuser, but shouldn't the options above fix that case?
