Public bug reported:
I did a do-release-upgrade as I usually do and I usually find the new
PostgreSQL package installed alongside with the previous, still working, one.
This time the upgrader PURGED the old package removing the cluster data
and configuration and everything!
Luckily I had a backup from which I am restoring the data but this is causing
downtime and loss of recent data.
I hope my situation had something VERY rare that caused this but I urge
you to check before data loss is caused to other people.
Let me know which log files may be helpful in debugging this event.
