In general, you should be running PostgreSQL 9.5.

The commands that `pups` ran are only present in the `postgres.9.3.template.yml` file; presumably, somewhere in your container definition you’ve got something that looks like:

```
templates:
  - "templates/postgres.9.3.template.yml"

```

If you remove the `.9.3` from there, you’ll have a much more up-to-date time.
