For those who need an immediate fix, the following is probably reasonably safe:

GRANT ALL ON partsvendor_entry_id_seq TO public;

Note this carries with it a small risk of denial of service in the
event that someone can execute arbitrary SQL (something which would be
rare).  My recommendation is to treat the above as a temporary grant
and revoke it after 1.3.19 where proper permissions are added for this
sequence.  After upgrading to 1.3.19, you can reverse the above by:

REVOKE ALL ON partsvendor_entry_id_seq FROM public;

Best Wishes,
