If there's anyplace in our SGML docs that explains this behavior, I can't find it right at the moment. Add an explanation in "Dependency Tracking" which seems like the authoritative place for such a discussion. Per gripe from Michelle Schwan. While at it, update this section's example of a dependency-related error message: they last looked like that in 8.3. And remove the explanation of dependency updates from pre-7.3 installations, which is probably no longer worth anybody's brain cells to read. The bogus error message example seems like an actual documentation bug, so back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: <20160620160047.5792.49827@wrigleys.postgresql.org>
