There is nothing automatic, some manual work is needed. A couple of ideas:
1. Install an older version of PostgreSQL that still supports WITH OIDS, and restore the dump there. Use ALTER TABLE
SETWITHOUT OIDS, and dump the database again (preferably with v12 of pg_dump).
2. Create the table manually, but with a regular oid-type column in place of the system column. Do a data-only restore.
You didn't mention what format the backup dump is. If it's in custom format, you can do a data-only restore easily. If
it'sa text sql file, and it's not too large, you can load it in a text exitor and edit manually.
