I am trying to backup a single schema only, without any other database
objects such as extensions. pg_dump however always includes
extensions, even with the --schema=schema option specified (see below
for example). Is there a workaround for this?

Cheers,

Adrian

I've applied a patch to fix this behavior. Thanks for the report!
