Hello All:

A number of our team members and I use pg_dump to export schema in an Ubuntu 
16.04 environment, I happen to have a postgress 9.6.4 server
that runs in a docker container, and in some cases I see the following select 
statement and fully qualified table names in the
CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE statements:

SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false);

CREATE TABLE database_name.table_name

and likewise for ALTER TABLE.

But other users (who haven't updated their systems recently) do not see the 
SELECT statement and we see unqualified table names, e.g.:


CREATE TABLE table_name


These changes in format impact our workflows, we would prefer to have 
unqualified table names.

So far I've made some docker containers (to minimize interactions or config 
errors at the host level), and in the containers the
following pg_dump client versions all have this behavior.

--
-- PostgreSQL database dump
--

-- Dumped from database version 9.6.4
-- Dumped by pg_dump version 9.6.8

-- Started on 2018-03-15 21:49:58 UTC

and

--
-- PostgreSQL database dump
--

-- Dumped from database version 9.6.4
-- Dumped by pg_dump version 10.3 (Ubuntu 10.3-1.pgdg16.04+1)

-- Started on 2018-03-15 22:20:47 UTC


The pg_dump command we run is:

pg_dump --verbose -d postgresql://our_server_user:xxxx@localhost:5433/server 
--column-inserts -t table1 -t table2 ... -t tableN --schema-only

Does anyone have an idea of what might cause this?   Is there something we can 
do on the client side to avoid getting qualified table names?

With best regards:

Bill
