Thank you for the report. I agree with both points.
I believe that replacing command_fails_like() with
command_checks_all() is an improvement whereas adding the missing dash
to --set-char-signendess option is a bug fix. How about reorganizing
the patches as follows?
- 0001 patch just adds the dash to the --set-char-signedness.
- 0002 patch uses command_checks_all() in 002_pg_upgrade.pl,
004_subscription.pl, and 005_char_signedness.pl for checking the
output better.
