No the OP was looking for that version per their Docker file from this post:

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAA%3DcNux52hkHTJ%2BXRci6OzLMQ1LoMcHE%3DcvXjwwWvYi%3DPt61Vw%40mail.gmail.com

Where:

ENV PG_VERSION 16.1-1.pgdg120+1

<...>

apt-get build-dep -y "postgresql-$PG_MAJOR=$PG_VERSION"; \
apt-get source --compile "postgresql-$PG_MAJOR=$PG_VERSION"; \

I pointed them at the repo you get archived versions if that is really
what they want. See:
