Major updates rarely are. That is why I tend to look before I leap. One 
way to make the leap easier is to change the Postgres repo from the 
Ubuntu to the PGDG repo on the current Ubuntu version being run then do 
the Ubuntu upgrade. The caveat being what the current version of 
Ubuntu/Postgres is you are running and whether that Postgres version is 
still supported in the main PGDG repo. Otherwise you are going to:

https://apt-archive.postgresql.org/
