    <p>Carlo,</p>
    <p>you're conflating two different things:</p>
    <p>- PostgreSQL & PostGIS version support in GDAL.  It might
      still semi work for you with dropped supported version by
      chance/accident.</p>
    <p>- PostgreSQL & PostGIS version support in QGIS PostgreSQL
      provider. Looking quickly at git log, I don't see anything
      explicit abut dropping them. I suppose that support for those
      older versions broke by accident or wasn't explicitly mentionned. </p>
    <p>In any case those ancient versions aren't supported, have likely
      unfixed security issues, and it would be hard for us to test
      against them.</p>
    <p>So use older QGIS versions if you really need to stick with your
      ancient PostgreSQL & PostGIS version. There's hardly no chance
      you can convince us (at least me for the code I'm responsible of)
      to bring back support for them</p>
    <p>Even</p>
