Title:
  24.04 LTS won't install due to PostgreSQL 15

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When trying to upgrade from xUbuntu 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS I get this
  error:

  The package 'postgresql-15' is marked for removal but it is in the 
  removal deny list. 

  To prevent data loss, postgresql packages are not removed 
  automatically during the upgrade. If you are certain you no longer 
  need postgresql-15, you can manually remove it and try the upgrade 
  again. 

  If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the 
  command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. If 
  you want to investigate this yourself the log files in 
  '/var/log/dist-upgrade' will contain details about the upgrade. 
  Specifically, look at 'main.log' and 'apt.log'. 


  However I need to stay on PostgreSQL 15 due to that is what we are
  using. I need to get past this error and keep postgresql-15 on my
  system until such time as we plan an upgrade.

  Thank you,
  Richard Knechtel
