Hi,

v9.6

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/contrib.html says " some of these
modules are not "extensions" in this sense, but are loaded into the server
in some other way, for instance by way of shared_preload_libraries. *See the
documentation of each module for details*."

So I looked in https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/adminpack.html but it
doesn't mention how it's loaded.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/auth-delay.html does, though, say that
it must be loaded using shared_preload_libraries.

Does this imply "silence means it's an extension"?

Thanks
