Ciao, ho letto questo post: [PostgreSQL 15 update](https://meta.discourse.org/t/postgresql-15-update/349515) - e ho provato ad aggiornare alla versione 15, tuttavia quando eseguo il comando di ricostruzione, mi imbatto in errori che non conosco e nessuna delle mie ricerche ha risolto il problema. Apprezzerei qualsiasi aiuto potessi ricevere qui.

Si lamenta che sia Locale che postgres siano inizializzati dalla versione 13 e non siano compatibili con la 15.
