Works for me, after substituting a text search configuration name that
I had installed:

=# select to_tsquery('english', plainto_tsquery('english', 'test')::text ||
':*');
 to_tsquery 
------------
 'test':*
(1 row)

I think you mistyped something in the Fedora case.  The error message
is pretty clear that what to_tsquery() got was only ':*'.

            regards, tom lane

Thanks for checking. I did not notice that somehow, my flyway scripts related to the text search configuration failed,
