Good morning,
I wanted to upgrade akonadi to pg 17, following https://userbase=2Ekde=2Eo=
rg/Akonadi/Postgres_update

The first steps worked fine, the upgrade check fails:

axel@southpole:~> /usr/lib/postgresql17/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/lib/postgre=
sql16/bin -B /usr/lib/postgresql17/bin -d $HOME/=2Elocal/share/akonadi/db_d=
ata_old -D $HOME/=2Elocal/share/akonadi/db_data --check
F=C3=BChre Konsistenzpr=C3=BCfungen durch
-------------------------------
Checking cluster versions                                     ok

der alte Cluster verwendet keine Datenpr=C3=BCfsummen, aber der neue verwe=
ndet sie
Fehlgeschlagen, Programm wird beendet


Translation: The old cluster does not use checksums, the new one does=2E

How can I work around this?

Thanks
Axel
