To the best of my knowledge .control files are only used by extensions, not by other modules. They are only referenced in src/backend/commands/extension.c in the backend code. For example, auto_explain which is a loadable module but not en extension does not have one, and I bet if you remove it you'll find this will work just fine. cheers andrew -- Andrew Dunstan EDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com
