ALTER GROUP

The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/sql-alterrole.html
Description:

 [ GROUP ] role_name

How to read this role specification?
According to notation the erroneous:

&quot;ALTER ROLE GROUP role_name&quot;

should be supported

Hmm, seems to be a documentation bug.  Possibly this was copied-and-pasted
from the docs for GRANT, which does allow the noise word GROUP here.

Thanks for reporting it!
