The UniqueViolation exception is inherited from IntegrityError and not exported.

Ad hoc patch is pinning psycopg2<2.8.

The workaround looks good to get our build passing again.

Once that is committed I'll do some testing on a branch with Ubuntu Xenial, which is being ​rolled out.

I noticed the unit tests on trunk pass with psycopg2 2.8.2 at ​https://travis-ci.org/edgewall/trac/jobs/521143761#L708. The tests which try to insert non-unique ticket property have been removed in r15380….

ResourceExistsError is raised on trunk in the case and the tests exist in trac/ticket/tests/console-tests.txt.

I committed the comment:2 workaround in r16906, r16907, record-only merge in r16908.
