How to drop user in postgres if it has depending objects

Question

Database idd owner is role idd_owner.

Database has 2 data schemas: public and firma1. User may have directly or indirectly assigned rights in this database and objects. User is not owner of any object. It has only granted rights.

How to drops such user ?

I tried

revoke all on all tables in schema public,firma1 from "vantaa" cascade;
revoke all on all sequences in schema public,firma1 from "vantaa" cascade;
revoke all on database idd from "vantaa" cascade;
revoke all on all functions in schema public,firma1 from "vantaa" cascade;
revoke all on schema public,firma1 from "vantaa" cascade;
revoke idd_owner from "vantaa" cascade;
ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES IN SCHEMA public,firma1 revoke all ON TABLES from "vantaa";
DROP ROLE if exists "vantaa"

but got error

role "vantaa" cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL:  privileges for schema public
DROP ROLE if exists "vantaa"

How to fix this so that user can dropped ?

How to create sql or plpgsql method which takes user name as parameter and drops this user in all cases without dropping data ?

Using Postgres 9.1+

Answer 1

Before dropping the user you can run :

REASSIGN OWNED BY vantaa TO <newuser>

you could just reassign to postgres if you don't know who to reassign that to ...

REASSIGN OWNED BY vantaa TO postgres;
