postgresql-8.3 8.3.5-0ubuntu0.8.04 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

postgresql-8.3 (8.3.5-0ubuntu0.8.04) hardy-proposed; urgency=low

  * New upstream bug fix release: (LP: #293758)
    - Fix GiST index corruption due to marking the wrong index entry
      "dead" after a deletion. This would result in index searches failing to
      find rows they should have found.
    - Fix backend crash when the client encoding cannot represent a
      localized error message.
    - Fix possible crash in bytea-to-XML mapping.
    - Fix possible crash when deeply nested functions are invoked from a
      trigger.
    - Improve optimization of "expression" IN ("expression-list") queries.
    - Fix mis-expansion of rule queries when a sub-SELECT appears in a
      function call in FROM, a multi-row VALUES list, or a RETURNING list.
    - Fix Assert failure during rescan of an IS NULL search of a GiST
      index.
    - Fix memory leak during rescan of a hashed aggregation plan.
    - Ensure an error is reported when a newly-defined PL/pgSQL trigger
      function is invoked as a normal function.
    - Force a checkpoint before "CREATE DATABASE" starts to copy files.
      This prevents a possible failure if files had recently been deleted
      in the source database.
    - Prevent possible collision of relfilenode numbers when moving a
      table to another tablespace with "ALTER SET TABLESPACE". The command
      tried to re-use the existing filename, instead of picking one that is
      known unused in the destination directory.
    - Fix incorrect text search headline generation when single query
      item matches first word of text.
    - Fix improper display of fractional seconds in interval values when
      using a non-ISO datestyle.
    - Make ILIKE compare characters case-insensitively even when they're
      escaped.
    - Ensure "DISCARD" is handled properly by statement logging.
    - Fix incorrect logging of last-completed-transaction time during
      PITR recovery.
    - Ensure SPI_getvalue and SPI_getbinval behave correctly when the
      passed tuple and tuple descriptor have different numbers of columns.
      This situation is normal when a table has had columns added or
      removed, but these two functions didn't handle it properly. The
      only likely consequence is an incorrect error indication.
    - Mark SessionReplicationRole as PGDLLIMPORT so it can be used by
      Slony on Windows.
    - Fix small memory leak when using libpq's gsslib parameter.
      The space used by the parameter string was not freed at connection
      close.
    - Ensure libgssapi is linked into libpq if needed.
    - Fix ecpg's parsing of "CREATE ROLE".
    - Fix recent breakage of pg_ctl restart.
  * 03-gettext-domains.patch: Unfuzz for new upstream version.
  * debian/control: Add explicit dependency to ssl-cert and locales, to ensure
    that those packages are configured before postgresql-8.3. Otherwise, the
    server fails to start up when they are unpacked while postgresql-8.3 is
    configured. (see LP #280135)
