Summary0007261: Ubuntu 20.04 does not have PostgreSQL 13
DescriptionPostgreSQL 13 is not available OOTB (in the "default" set of sources.list targets).
Either we need to find/document how to augment sources.list and thus install PostgreSQL 13,
or we revisit the suitability of Ubuntu 20.04 and jump to the next LTS version (that has PostgreSQL 13 OOTB).

BTW, latest LTS version (of Ubuntu server) is 22.04:

Looks like 22.04 does indeed have PostgreSQL 13 (since it has 14):

Installation of taler-exchange, taler-exchange-offline, taler-merchant, taler-wallet-cli on 22.04 works w/o incident.
There is, however, a small problem on uninstall (see 0007265).

Also, GPG key addition via apt-key is deprecated in 22.04:

These commits resolve the issue (for the Ubuntu-related frag):
- https://git.taler.net/docs.git/commit/?id=7fb6183602295e3dd5c98d64a2ee1cf00ee83bf7
- https://git.taler.net/docs.git/commit/?id=0458b1caa0bb2d2ae46c61acfbf8be193aecd897

Other docs still mention Focal Fossa, but that's a separate issue.
