Обсуждение: PostgreSQL 7.3.6 Now Available ...
After several fixes were backpatches to the 7_3_STABLE branch, we have now
released a 7.3.6. As the list of Changes since 7.3.5 is quite small, they
are included in this email:
* Revert erroneous changes in rule permissions checking
* Repair incorrect order of operations in GetNewTransactionId()
* Ensure configure selects -fno-strict-aliasing even when an
external value for CFLAGS is supplied
* Make pg_restore handle 64-bit off_t correctly
* Make contrib/dblink not assume that local and remote type OIDs
match (Joe)
* Quote connectby()'s start_with argument properly (Joe)
* Don't crash when a rowtype argument to a plpgsql function is NULL
* Avoid generating invalid character encoding sequences in corner
cases when planning LIKE operations
* Ensure text_position() cannot scan past end of source string in
multibyte cases (Korea PostgreSQL Users' Group)
* Fix index optimization and selectivity estimates for LIKE
operations on bytea columns (Joe)
This version, as with most minor versions, does not require a dump/reload
to put into place.
As always, this release is available on all our mirrors, viable at:
http://www.postgresql.org/mirrors-www.html
And, thanks to David Fetter, is also available via BitTorrent at:
http://bt.postgresql.org

Hi, Just realized that man pages are not installed. Reason is that doc/man.tar.gz does not exists, but Makefile expects it. instead, there is a doc/man-7.3.tar.gz... /Palle --On Wednesday, March 03, 2004 10:08:52 -0400 "Marc G.

Well... Since it is so new, perhaps it should be re-packaged, although I agree, once released it should usually not be... /P
Thinking some more, I say re-package. Those using this file for automatic packaging have not fetched it yet, hopefully... /Palle --On Wednesday, March 03, 2004 11:21:28 -0400 "Marc G.

I'd say repackage, being careful not to change anything else ...

Would it make sense to call it 7.3.6b or some such thing? Seems like a straightforward way to handle packaging mistakes.
b is often mistaken for beta, and I believe it is already too late, it is out at the main server? /Palle --On Wednesday, March 03, 2004 11:26:03 -0500 "Matthew T.
