Ah, ok. Right, I can see that.

But I don't really get how the final command will look like.

pg_restore -L <file_without_FUNCTIONS> -d <my_database>

But somewhere I have to indicate the original file, no? I mean, where
do all my data now come from? The original dump contains all data; the
newly created via

pg_restore -l geodataportal.public | grep -v FUNCTION >
pgdump.geodataportal.public.no-func

has only the TOC. But no data...

Thanks for any advice.

Stef
