Re: BUG #18217: ALTER TABLE IF EXISTS not being honored with DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

This works for me in the current minor release (15.5):

$ psql
psql (15.5)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# ALTER TABLE IF EXISTS ONLY public.foo DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS foo_pkey;
NOTICE:  relation "foo" does not exist, skipping
ALTER TABLE

Please update.  If you can still reproduce the problem in the
current release, there must be some additional contributing
factor -- please try to provide a self-contained test case.
