[Tile-serving] [openstreetmap/osm2pgsql] Need for a "minimum_version" option for osm2pgsql in Lua flex styles? (Discussion #1638)

[Jochen Topf]

There is a `osm2pgsql.version` variable in Osm2pgsql Lua that you can use to do any version checks yourself.

But, more generally, "cersion" is a rather complex concept and just checking against a version number brings its own problems. There are always changes in software, sometimes intentional and documented, sometimes not. So in the end, you'll always run into situations where some very specific small things don't work but we didn't update the version number correctly or whatever and things break.
