that's one of the things I very much don't like about Python. This version 2 and 3 gibberish has been going on for
yearsnow wherever it's used, be it packaging with operating systems or integrated into applications.

that is exactly what I don't understand too. It should have shown up in the query, but it didn't. The PostgreSQL 12.4
softwarewas compiled exactly the same way, only without ICU support. The other configure options were the same. Other
thanthat, I didn't change anything in my build script. 

For your reference, below are the two configs:

PostgreSQL 12.4:

$ pg_config

PostgreSQL 13.0:

$ pg_config
BINDIR = /data/postgres/13.0/bin
DOCDIR = /data/postgres/13.0/share/doc
