I'm getting the following error when trying to work with an hstore data type in PostgreSQL 16.3, while it was working fine in PostgreSQL 16.1: The field 'xxx' has a type currently unknown to Npgsql (OID 17521). You can retrieve it as a string by marking it as unknown, please see the FAQ.
Since the same operations were working in 16.1, I had to downgrade my version from 16.3 to 16.1 to avoid this issue. Data should be read and written without any issues using the hstore data type.
