pg_restore: warning: could not find where to insert IF EXISTS in statement "-- *not* dropping schema, since initdb creates it

Hi,
Can you please take a look at the following?
pg_restore is emitting the following:
pg_restore: warning: could not find where to insert IF EXISTS in statement "-- *not* dropping schema, since initdb creates it
The restore is done with:
pg_restore --username=user --host=localhost --port=5432 --dbname=db3 --format=d db-3.20230217102426/db3.pg_dump --clean --if-exists
The backup was done with:
pg_dump --username=user --host=db-3.com --port=5432 --dbname=db3 --file=db-3.20230217102426/db3.pg_dump --format=d --clean --if-exists --no-blobs --jobs=4 --verbose
It seems that the string pg_restore complains about is created by db_restore. I suspect pg_restore wrongly parsed the comment as a
statement that should be prefixed with IF EXISTS.
# pg_restore --version
pg_restore (PostgreSQL) 15.1
# pg_dump --version
pg_dump (PostgreSQL) 15.1
# uname -a
Linux aura 6.0.19-4-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Feb 6 11:26:13 UTC 2023 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Best regards,
Samo

It's just a warning - the restore succeeded anyway.

This was reported already, and is fixed in 15.2.
