I am running version 7.2.1 of postgres and I am trying to restore all the large objects and associated tables from a backup I took 3 days ago. I created a restore list using
 
pg_restore -l restore.file > restore.list
 
command. I then edited the restore list to only include those tables I needed. Then I restored the tables and large objects using the
 
pg_restore -c -d database -U user -L restore list restore.file
 
Everything got restored, all the requested tables and all the large objects. However, all the large objects were restored with a different oids (some using oids of previous large objects), which made all the references to these oids in the tables incorrect.
 
What did I do wrong?
