I’m wondering how we can help more projects make releases on PGXN, if for now other reason than to enable these kinds of checks without much additional effort. PGXN releases don’t require a ton of work, requiring just a META.json file in a zip file, and there are GitHub workflows to automate such releases. Anyone interested please hit me up directly for details. I even make pull requests like this one for pg_partman[1].
Best,
David
