      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      Upgrade PostgreSQL from 13 to 15 using postgresql-setup --upgrade

      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      Need to find out the values, and manually pass parameters to initdb via
      PGSETUP_INITDB_OPTIONS="--lc-collate=#{collate} --lc-ctype=#{ctype} --locale=#{locale}"

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      postgresql-13.16-1.el9.x86_64 to postgresql-15.8-2.module_el9+1108+b05fe5f3.x86_64, but the same applies to any upgrade on EL8 and EL9

      Also I've not seen any changes related to that in https://github.com/devexp-db/postgresql-setup, so I'd expect the same will be valid on EL10 too.

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      Failure, exiting
      

      Expected results

      Cluster is upgraded to PostgreSQL 15 without me having to manually find out and pass collation etc parameters.

      Actual results

      lc_collate values for database "template1" do not match:  old "en_US.UTF-8", new "en_GB.UTF-8"
