The problem continues

I perform this:

pg_restore -Ft -v db.tar -d test -U postgres -S postgres  --disable-triggers

And this is the result:

pg_restore: fixing large object cross-references for parts.qltymemdoc
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] error while updating column "qltymemdoc" of
table "parts": ERROR: large object 609937 does not exist
pg_restore: *** aborted because of error

¿ Why ? I suppose that the triggers are disabled (-S postgres --disable-triggers),
and I don't understand why pg_restore reports that "large object 609937
does not exist".

Thank you.
