### 8. Updates for PostgreSQL Users
Starting with 8.6 users using GitLab in combination with PostgreSQL are required
to have the "pg_trgm" extension enabled for all GitLab databases. If you're
using GitLab's Omnibus packages there's nothing you'll need to do manually as
this extension is enabled automatically. Users who install GitLab without using
Omnibus (e.g. by building from source) have to enable this extension manually.
To enable this extension run the following SQL command as a PostgreSQL super
user for _every_ GitLab database:
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_trgm;
Certain operating systems might require the installation of extra packages for
this extension to be available. For example, users using Ubuntu will have to
install the "postgresql-contrib" package in order for this extension to be
available.
#### Init script
