+  <para>
+   A tablespace can only be dropped by its owner or a superuser.
+   The tablespace must be empty of all database objects before it can be
+   dropped. It is possible that objects in other databases might still reside
+   in the tablespace even if no objects in the current database are using
+   the tablespace.  Also, if the tablespace is listed in the <xref
+   linkend="guc-temp-tablespaces"/> setting of any active session, the
+   <command>DROP</command> might fail due to temporary files residing in the
+   tablespace.
