That said, you shouldn't worry about libpq5 11 - using the 13 version from the "main" repository component is the recommended way. I guess the fact that no one has spotted that problem before means no one is actually using the "11" and the other versioned components.
Actually, I received a few complaints the other day from developers for the bionic-pgdg/9.6 component when 9.6.21 was pushed, so Saif's issue was not an isolated incident. At the time, I saw that the 'Packages' file was similarly last updated in November. Everything looks good now, though.
While I recommend to my teams use the 'main' component for libpq, there continues to be fear among many that libpq versions mismatched from the parent database cluster version may cause unexpected issues — even after I point out that the database cluster itself is using the most recent release of libpq from the 'main' component.
