Hi,
as part of the postgresql-14 transision (bug 1949579) I was looking into pgloads test fails.
I found that there is more which isn't ready yet.

The package is rather old without updates, the same in G/H/I/J:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pgloader/3.6.2-1

Furthermore a recent no-change rebuild identified it as an FTBFS (on armhf)
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pgloader/3.6.2-1build1


In a chat with the Debian postgresql maintainer (Thanks Myon) it became clear that this is broken in regard to postgresql-14 since the new database insists on a more secure scram-sha-256 auth.
But the dependency of cl-pgloader that is cl-postmodern isn't ready for that yet.
A new version of cl-postmodern is in the making but needs cl-global-vars and cl-uax-15 to be ready, both currently held in Debians new queue:
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-common-lisp@lists.debian.org

In Debian this is ignored, they also had an issue (independent) with the ssl test and then ran a migration-reference/0 which since then makes it not expect a pass.
https://ci.debian.net/packages/p/pgloader/unstable/amd64/

There are no reverse-dependencies at the moment
$ reverse-depends --release jammy src:pgloader
No reverse dependencies found
$ reverse-depends --release jammy --build-depends src:pgloader
No reverse dependencies found

I think removing it now will help to unblock postgresql-14 and once the
support for the new cl* packages is ready it will come back to Jammy as
a sync.
