The error would be visible based on how a PostgreSQL client implemented this behavior. This regression affects versions 17.3, 16.7, 15.11, 14.16, and 13.19. For this reason, version 16.7 was skipped. + +### Improved security and user experience for Docker images + +* Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL Docker image is now based on Universal Base Image (UBI) version 9, which includes the latest security fixes. This makes the image compliant with the Red Hat certification and ensures the seamless work of containers on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. + +* You no longer have to specify the `{{dockertag}}-multi` tag when you run Percona Distribution for PostgreSQL in Docker. Instead, use the `percona/percona-distribution-postgresql:{{dockertag}}`. Docker automatically identifies the architecture of your operating system and pulls the corresponding image.
