Trying to exclude items from dumps of postgis-enabled databases
we use pg_restore -l output and strip what we think belong to PostGIS.
In doing so, Renzo found that for OPERATOR there are not enough
informations to unambiguosly find it being part of PostGIS (see
included mail snippet).
Do you think this could be improved on the pg_restore side ?
TIA.
