Hi Wasim,

As pointed out by Tom, catalog changes are likely to break or show
unexpected results. We often experienced this kind of issues in our
regression runs for a tool where we used to migrate from other databases to
different versions if Postgres Servers and then print using \… commands.
Even if these worked, we had to make adjustments.
