Description

The blog post on the release of GitLab 17.11 contains this bit:

In GitLab 18.0, the minimum-supported version of PostgreSQL will be version 16. To prepare for this change, on instances that don’t use PostgreSQL Cluster, upgrades to GitLab 17.11 will attempt to automatically upgrade PostgreSQL to version 16.

What are the prospects for a sameersbn/postgresql image with version 16?
