This is no longer necessary or appropriate since we don't use zero typeid
as a wildcard anymore, and it fixes a nasty performance problem with
functions with many parameters.  Per recent example from Reuven Lerner.

The attached fixes select_common_type() to support the below case:

create table t1( c1 int);
create domain dom_c1 int;
create table t2(c1 dom_c1);
select * from t1 join t2 using( c1 );

I didn't see a need for maintaining the domain as the preferred type. A
simple getBaseType() call on all elements of the list seems to be
enough.

after the CHECK.  Cluster depends on the index name, so I thought it
wise to ensure all names are available, rather than leaving off the
CONSTRAINT "$n" portion for internally named constraints.

CREATE TABLE jkey (col integer primary key);
CREATE TABLE j (col integer REFERENCES jkey);
ALTER TABLE j ADD CHECK(col > 5);

This is a problem in 7.3 series as well as -Tip.

I believe the attached xref meets the intent of the perform.sgml change.

This patch should hopefully fix both kerberos 4 and 5.

Attached is a patch that removes all of the RExec code from plpython from
the current PostgreSQL CVS.  In addition, plpython needs to be changed to an
untrusted language in createlang.  Please let me know if there are any
problems.

servers.  I haven't tested it very well, so use at your own risk (and I
recommend against using it in production).

Basically, I have a central database server that has 4 summary tables
inside
it replicated to a remote slave (these database tables are for my mail
server
authentication, so these are replicated to another server tuned for many
connections, and so I don't have postgres connections opened straight to
my
back-end database server).

Unfortunately, I also wanted to implement a replication database server
for
hot-backups.  I realized, too late, that the replication process is
pretty
greedy and will try to replicate all tables marked as a
"MasterAddTable".

To make a long story, I made a patch to RServ.pm and Replicate that
allows you
to specify, on the command line, a list of tables that you want to
replicate...it'll ignore all others.

I haven't finished, since this has to be integrated with CleanLog for
instance, but this should (and does) suffice for the moment.

I have yet to test it with two slaves, but at least my mail server
replication
database now works (it was failing every time it tried to replicate, for
a
variety of reasons).

Anyone have any suggestions on how to improve on this?  (or, if someone
more
familiar with this code wants to take the ball and run with it, you're
welcome to).

This is a bug in python interface module,
postgresql-7.3.3/src/interfaces/python/pg.py.

_quote() function fails due to integer overflow if input d is larger
than max integer.

In the case where the column type is "BIGINT", the input d may very well
be larger than max integer while its type, t, is labeled 'int'.
The conversion on line 19, return "%d" % int(d), will fail due to
"OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int".



Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

[1] create a table with a column type 'BIGINT'.
[2] use pg.DB.insert() to insert a value that is larger than max integer

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Just changing the conversion at line 19 of pg.py to long(d) instead of
int(d) should fix it. The following is a patch:

Thanks for the confirmation.  Here's a patch which also contains some
more noncritical changes to tqual.c:
 .  make code more readable by introducing local variables for xvac
 .  no longer two separate branches for aborted and crashed.
    The actions were the same in all cases.

The attached converts be below to "name":

The below have an existing, initdb supplied, entity named "name".  As
such, it could be confusing for the reader to see that identifier used
in the example.

restructures the deferred trigger queue.  The fundamental change is to
