Changes:
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~rc2-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Second release candidate of PostgreSQL 8.3. Upload to unstable now, the
database format is not likely to change any more, and we want more
widespread testing now.
* debian/control: Build the versionless metapackages from this source now
and let them point to 8.3.
* debian/postgresql-server-dev-8.3.install: Do not ship pg_config.1, it's
already shipped by libpq-dev. (Closes: #459746)
* debian/rules: Stop postgresql at priority 21, not 19, so that services at
runlevel 20 which use postgresql (such as postfix, pdns) can shutdown
cleanly. Do the transition on upgrades, too
(debian/postgresql-8.3.postinst). (Closes: #447063)
* debian/rules: set SYSCONFDIR to /etc/postgresql-common, so that
pg_service.conf is searched there. (Closes: #439026)
* Add debian/patches/13-pg_service.conf_directory_doc.patch: Change
documentation comment in sample pg_service.conf to point to Debian's
sysconfdir (/etc/postgresql-common) instead of /usr/local/pgsql/etc.
* Fix dependencies of libecpg-dev.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* First release candidate of PostgreSQL 8.3. This also provides the security
bug fixes of 8.2.6:
- Prevent functions in indexes from executing with the privileges of
the user running "VACUUM", "ANALYZE", etc. "SET ROLE" is now forbidden
within a SECURITY DEFINER context. [CVE-2007-6600]
- Suitably crafted regular-expression patterns could cause crashes,
infinite or near-infinite looping, and/or massive memory
consumption, all of which pose denial-of-service hazards for
applications that accept regex search patterns from untrustworthy
sources. [CVE-2007-4769, CVE-2007-4772, CVE-2007-6067]
- Require non-superusers who use "/contrib/dblink" to use only
password authentication, as a security measure.
The fix that appeared for this in 8.2.5 was incomplete, as it
plugged the hole for only some "dblink" functions. [CVE-2007-6601,
CVE-2007-3278]
* debian/patches/04-psql-passwordprompt.patch: Update for new version.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.3 (no changes necessary).
* debian/rules:
- Build with -O1 on sparc and alpha until the miscompilation with -O2 is
sorted out (http://lists.debian.org/debian-alpha/2007/11/msg00025.html).
- Have a failed test suite fail the build on all architectures again.
* Ship pg_config in postgresql-server-dev, and ship a copy in /usr/bin in
libpq-dev, instead of libpq-dev shipping it in
/usr/lib/postgresql/<version>/bin. This makes it possible to use a
libpq-dev from a different major version. (See #455509)
* debian/control: Mention tablefunc in -contrib description.
(Closes: #458752)
* debian/rules: Run make bigcheck instead of check, to run the numeric_big
test, too.
* debian/rules: Add target 'contrib-check' for running the tests in contrib.
Do not call it by default for now, still needs some work.
* debian/rules: Add target 'contrib-installcheck' for running the tests in
contrib, using the installed programs in the system.
* debian/rules: Replace hardcoded '8.3' strings with $(MAJOR_VER) variable.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta4-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Fourth beta release of PostgreSQL 8.3.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta3-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Drop libgssapi-dev build dependency, current krb does not
need it any more. (Closes: #452549)
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta3-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Third beta release of PostgreSQL 8.3.
* debian/rules:
- Ignore test suite failure on alpha for now, since it behaves weird on
some floating point operations (regression in glibc and gcc-4.2). Bug is
under investigation. Fixes FTBFS for now. (see #449002)
- Remove test suite ignoring for mips and mipsel again, seems the buildds
finally got a fixed kernel.
* Add debian/patches/12-psql-sensible-editor.patch: Use sensible-editor
instead of vi as editor fallback in psql if $EDITOR and friends are not
defined. (Closes: #451553)
* Enable OSSP UUID support, add build dependency libossp-uuid-dev.
(Closes: #451336)
* Install some missing .so libraries.
* debian/rules: Check that all files in debian/tmp get installed to
somewhere, and fail the build if not.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta2-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Second beta release of PostgreSQL 8.3.
* Remove patches which are upstream now:
00upstream-encoding-abibreakage.patch, 12-pgpassfile-crash.patch
* 03-gettext-domains.patch: Adapt to new upstream version.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta1-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Update -contrib description for new modules.
* debian/{control,rules}: Enable GSSAPI and LDAP support and add build
dependencies libgssapi-dev and libldap2-dev.
* Add debian/patches/00upstream-encoding-abibreakage.patch: Fix libpq ABI
breakage wrt. ordering of encoding names. Taken from upstream CVS head.
This requires a catalog bump, thus upgrades from 8.3~beta1-1 will break.
* debian/postgresql-8.3.postrm:
- Clean up rotated logs on purge when postgresql-common is already gone.
(Closes: #447445)
- Clean up default data dir/log file if 'pgdata'/'log' symbolic links do
not exist.
- Clean up environment file.
.
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta1-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* First beta release of PostgreSQL 8.3. Branch off the 8.2 packaging.
* Drop debian/patches/12-m32r-tas.patch: Adopted upstream.
* Drop debian/patches/04-timezone-symlinks.patch: Upstream now offers
configure option --with-system-tzdata. Use it in debian/rules.
* Drop debian/patches/50-contrib-enablemodules.patch: xml2 is now built
conditionally. Supply --with-lib{xml,xslt} configure options in
debian/rules.
* Updated patches for new upstream version.
* debian/control: Bump postgresql-common dependencies to >= 79 to ensure
support of version 8.3.
* debian/control: Do not build the versionless metapackages like
'postgresql' until 8.3 is released and goes to unstable. Until then, 8.2
should remain the default.
* Add debian/patches/04-psql-passwordprompt.patch: Change psql to not prompt
for a password if PGPASSWORD is given, just as in earlier versions.
Without that, there is no way to suppress the password input prompt, which
is bad for scripts.
* Add debian/patches/12-pgpassfile-crash.patch: Fix crash (free'ing a static
stack variable) in fe-connect.c.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Require non-superusers who use "/contrib/dblink" to use only
password authentication, as a security measure.
[CVE-2007-3278, CVE-2007-3280]
- Fix ALTER DOMAIN ADD CONSTRAINT for cases involving domains over
domains.
- Make "CREATE DOMAIN ... DEFAULT NULL" work properly.
- Fix some planner problems with outer joins, notably poor size
estimation for t1 LEFT JOIN t2 WHERE t2.col IS NULL.
- Allow the interval data type to accept input consisting only of
milliseconds or microseconds.
- Allow timezone name to appear before the year in timestamp input.
- Fixes for GIN indexes used by "/contrib/tsearch2".
- Speed up rtree index insertion.
- Fix excessive logging of SSL error messages.
- Fix logging so that log messages are never interleaved when using
the syslogger process.
- Fix crash when log_min_error_statement logging runs out of memory.
- Fix incorrect handling of some foreign-key corner cases.
- Fix stddev_pop(numeric) and var_pop(numeric).
- Prevent "REINDEX" and "CLUSTER" from failing due to attempting to
process temporary tables of other sessions.
- Restrict "/contrib/pgstattuple" functions to superusers, for
security reasons.
- Do not let "/contrib/intarray" try to make its GIN opclass the
default (this caused problems at dump/restore).
* Remove debian/patches/00upstream-01-polymorphic-functions.patch: Upstream
now.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.4-3) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Urgency medium since the dpkg bug above is nasty and I want this fixed in
testing ASAP.
* debian/postgresql-8.2.postinst: Work around dpkg bug #435938 by manually
doing the timezone symlink transition. Closes: #430524
* debian/rules: Make binary-arch idempotent if test suite fails.
Closes: #431565
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Remove some unnecessary build depends. Closes: #424010
* debian/postgresql-8.2.install: Actually install the "timezone" symlink,
not the dereferenced files.
* Add debian/patches/12-m32r-tas.patch:
- Support m32r architecture, thanks to Kazuhiro Inaoka for the initial
patch.
- Backported from CVS head:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2007-05/msg00065.php
- Closes: #419267
* Add debian/patches/00upstream-01-polymorphic-functions.patch:
- Fix breakage of polymorphic SQL functions (regression in 8.2.4), add
test cases.
- Patch taken from upstream CVS:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2007-05/msg00010.php
- Closes: #430347
* debian/control: Fix libpq-dev Depends: line: ${Source-Version} ->
${binary:Version}.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* New upstream security/bug fix release:
- Support explicit placement of the temporary-table schema within
search_path, and disable searching it for functions and operators.
This is needed to allow a security-definer function to set a truly
secure value of search_path. Without it, an unprivileged SQL user
can use temporary objects to execute code with the privileges of
the security-definer function (CVE-2007-2138). See "CREATE
FUNCTION" for more information.
- Fix to_char() so it properly upper/lower cases localized day or
month names.
- "/contrib/tsearch2" crash fixes.
- Require "COMMIT PREPARED" to be executed in the same database as
the transaction was prepared in.
- New traditional (Taiwan) Chinese FAQ.
- Prevent the statistics collector from writing to disk too
frequently.
- Fix potential-data-corruption bug in how "VACUUM FULL" handles
"UPDATE" chains.
- Fix bug in domains that use array types.
- Fix "pg_dump" so it can dump a serial column's sequence using "-t"
when not also dumping the owning table.
- Planner fixes, including improving outer join and bitmap scan
selection logic.
- Fix possible wrong answers or crash when a PL/pgSQL function tries
to RETURN from within an EXCEPTION block.
- Fix PANIC during enlargement of a hash index.
* debian/patches/04-timezone-symlinks.patch: Adapt to slightly changed
Makefile of 8.2.4.
* Remove debian/patches/12-vacuum-cycle-hang.patch: Fixed upstream.
* debian/postgresql-8.2.postrm: Fix bashism.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.3-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules: Do not let failed test suite fail the build on mips and
mipsel. The Debian buildds' kernels are still broken.
* debian/control: Add empty postgresql{,-client,-contrib,-doc} packages
which always point to the latest available version.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* First upload to unstable: Welcome, Lenny!
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.3-3) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules: Do not FTBFS on failed test suite on sparc. sparc throws a
'floating point exception' instead of a 'division by zero' error, which is
fine, but differs from expected string output. Closes: #417160
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.3-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Add Perl dependency to p-8.2-plperl, to ensure that
creating plperl functions works (as opposed to plperlu, which only needs
libperl). (see bug #412135)
* debian/control: Do not mention nor suggest 'pgdocs' any more in p-doc's
description since pgdocs is only available for 7.4. (see bug #405097)
* debian/patches/04-timezone-symlinks.patch:
- Use the timezone database from the system tzdata instead of shipping our
own. Towards a single authoritative time zone database in Debian and
Ubuntu... :) (LP: #41159)
- Drop previous hardlink-to-symlink patch to zic, since that is irrelevant
now.
- debian/control: Add tzdata dependency.
* Add debian/patches/12-vacuum-cycle-hang.patch: Properly release our
semaphore lock before erroring out wit elog() to prevent deadlocks on
vacuum errors. Thanks to Heikki Linnakangas!
* debian/rules: Have a test suite failure fail the build again. Let's ignore
the old kernels on the Debian mips[el] buildds for now.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream bug fix release to fix regressions in 8.2.2:
- Remove overly-restrictive check for type length in constraints and
functional indexes.
- Fix optimization so MIN/MAX in subqueries can again use indexes.
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.2-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- Fix security vulnerabilities that allowed connected users to
read backend memory.
The vulnerabilities involve suppressing the normal check that a SQL
function returns the data type it's declared to, and changing the
data type of a table column (CVE-2007-0555, CVE-2007-0556). These
errors can easily be exploited to cause a backend crash, and in
principle might be used to read database content that the user
should not be able to access.
- Fix not-so-rare-anymore bug wherein btree index page splits could
fail due to choosing an infeasible split point.
- Properly handle to_char('CC') for years ending in 00.
Year 2000 is in the twentieth century, not the twenty-first.
- "/contrib/tsearch2" localization improvements.
- Fix incorrect permission check in information_schema.key_column_usage
view.
The symptom is "relation with OID nnnnn does not exist" errors. To
get this fix without using "initdb", use "CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW"
to install the corrected definition found in
"share/information_schema.sql". Note you will need to do this in
each database.
- Improve "VACUUM" performance for databases with many tables.
- Fix for rare Assert() crash triggered by UNION.
- Fix potentially incorrect results from index searches using ROW
inequality conditions.
- Tighten security of multi-byte character processing for UTF8
sequences over three bytes long.
- Fix possible crashes when an already-in-use PL/pgSQL function is
updated.
- Improve PL/pgSQL handling of domain types.
- Fix possible errors in processing PL/pgSQL exception blocks.
* debian/control: postgresql-client-8.2 provides postgresql-client. This
avoids breaking all the reverse dependencies to p-c when the transitional
package gets removed. Closes: #400648
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.1-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/libpq-dev.install: Install missing pg_trace.h.
* debian/control: Remove -contrib's libpg-perl recommendation, nothing in
-contrib uses it any more. Thanks to Peter Eisentraut for spotting this.
Closes: #408070
* debian/control: Update -contrib package description for 8.2.
Closes: #408072
.
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.1-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Fix crash with SELECT ... LIMIT ALL (also LIMIT NULL).
- "Several /contrib/tsearch2" fixes (Teodor)
- Fix planner mistakes for outer join queries.
- Fix several problems in queries involving sub-SELECTs.
- Fix potential crash in SPI during subtransaction abort.
This affects all PL functions since they all use SPI.
- Improve build speed of PDF documentation.
- Re-add JST (Japan) timezone abbreviation.
- Improve optimization decisions related to index scans.
- Have psql print multi-byte combining characters as before, rather
than output as \u.
- Improve index usage of regular expressions that use parentheses.
This improves psql \d performance also.
- Make pg_dumpall assume that databases have public CONNECT
privilege, when dumping from a pre-8.2 server.
This preserves the previous behavior that anyone can connect to a
database if allowed by "pg_hba.conf".
.

.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-6) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Drop heimdal-dev suggestion of libpq-dev. Closes: #379848
* debian/libpq-dev.install: Ship pg_wchar.h. Closes: #380047
* Transition for private python extension in p-plpython-8.1:
- debian/control:
+ Bump cdbs/debhelper build dependency versions.
+ Add {XS,XB}-Python-Version attributes.
- debian/compat: Use compat level 5.
- Add debian/pycompat: Use compat level 2.
- debian/rules: Call dh_pycentral and dh_python for p-plpython-8.1.
- Closes: #380898
* debian/control: Change the order of records so that the libraries come
first. With that, postgresql-client-8.1 and friends pick up the correct
shlibs. Closes: #381211
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules: Install init script at priority 19, since Apache and web
applications usually reside on priority 20, but often require a running
database. This follows a recent change in the MySQL package, thanks to
Christian Hammers for pointing this out. Closes: #379276
* Add debian/patches/12-pg_restore-ignore-failing-tables.patch:
- pg_restore: Add option -X no-data-for-failed-tables to ignore TABLE DATA
objects if the corresponding TABLE could not be created. Necessary for
fixing #351571.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules: Use -fPIC instead of -fpic to avoid FTBFS on sparc and m68k
(and maybe avoid the ICE on arm).
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init: Add LSB magic comment header (provide both
postgresql-8.1 and a generic postgresql service). Closes: #377882
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Add missing comerr-dev and libkrb5-dev dependencies to
libpq-dev. Closes: #371158
* Add debian/patches/54-contrib-dbmirror-quoteparsing.patch: Fix parsing of
quotes escaped as '' in PendingData table. Closes: #375743
* Add debian/patches/55-contrib-admin.patch:
- Add the 'admin81' contrib module and build it. This provides
instrumentation functions for use with PgAdmin 3 and similar.
- http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/pgadmin3/release/v1.4.2/adminpacks/
- Closes: #354731
* debian/rules: Build with -fpic everywhere to improve the proactive
security effectivity of address space layout randomization. This has no
measurable performance impact on at least i386, amd64, and powerpc.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Add debian/libpq4.shlibs and bump it to >= 8.1.4, to respect the
introduction of PQescapeStringConn() and PQescapeByteaConn().
* debian/postgresql-8.1.postrm, clean_dir(): Do not use rmdir's
--ignore-fail-on-nonempty, since that still falls apart when the
directory is a mountpoint. Just ignore errors.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- The server now rejects invalidly-encoded multibyte characters in all
cases to defend against SQL-injection attacks. [CVE-2006-2313]
- Reject unsafe uses of \' in string literals (for client encodings that
allow SQL injection with this, like SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, or UHC). A
new configuration parameter backslash_quote is available to adjust this
behavior when needed. [CVE-2006-2314]
- Modify libpq's string-escaping routines to be aware of encoding
considerations and standard_conforming_strings
This fixes libpq-using applications for the security issues
described in CVE-2006-2313 and CVE-2006-2314, and also
future-proofs them against the planned changeover to SQL-standard
string literal syntax. Applications that use multiple PostgreSQL
connections concurrently should migrate to PQescapeStringConn() and
PQescapeByteaConn() to ensure that escaping is done correctly for
the settings in use in each database connection. Applications that
do string escaping "by hand" should be modified to rely on library
routines instead.
- Various bug fixes, see upstream changelog for details.
* Remove debian/patches/12-krb5-multiusers.patch: Fixed upstream.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init: Add a comment to point out that environment
variables need to be set in the 'environment' file, not in the init
script.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init, debian/postgresql-8.1.postinst: Do not fail if
init.d-functions/maintscripts-functions are not present, which happens if
postgresql-{8.1,common} are removed, but not purged. Closes: #362488
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.2.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules:
- Put --as-needed into LDFLAGS instead of CFLAGS to avoid warnings when
building extension modules. Closes: #360759
- Fix a bashism.
* debian/control: Suggest oidentd | ident-server (oidentd prefered since it
works with IPv6). Closes: #359193
* libecpg-dev: Move manpage to /usr/share/man/man1 where it belongs to.
Closes: #360817
* debian/rules: Ship the tutorial's Makefile and ship the SQL *.source files
(not the generated *.sql files) to get the correct path to the built
libraries. Closes: #360469
* Add debian/patches/13-tutorial-README.patch: Remove confusing note about
make and point out that p-server-dev-8.1 is required for building the
tutorial.
* debian/postgresql-contrib-8.1.install, 50-contrib-oracle-enable.patch:
Move Ora2Pg.pm to /usr/share/postgresql/8.1 and adapt the library search
path in ora2pg.pl accordingly. Closes: #360818
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init: Use shell 'sh -e' instead of bash.
* debian/postgresql-contrib-8.1.install: Ship ora2pg.pl and Ora2Pg.pm.
* debian/control: Updated contrib package description. Closes: #355172
* debian/rules: Don't special-case HPPA for --enable-thread-safety-force;
the current kernel seems to cope with threads quite well, so that the
configure check does not hang any more. Closes: #315440
* debian/control: Build server packages on mips and mipsel again, even if
they do not work. No need to block testing migration forever (the
ftp-masters seem reluctant to remove the mips binaries, see #344487), and
the bug is in binutils, not PostgreSQL itself (see #357603).
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Re-enable 'do not run as root' check from upstream:
- Move debian/patches/08-disable-root-check.patch to
debian/disable-root-check.patch.
- debian/rules: Move test suite to binary/predeb and apply
disable-root-check.patch manually right before calling the test suite.
Unapply debian/disable-root-check.patch after executing the
test suite to not break subsequent package builds.
- With this, the test suite can happily run as (fake)root during package
build without disabling the check in the actual packages.
* postgresql-doc-8.1: Ship tutorial C and SQL files.
(https://launchpad.net/bugs/30233)
* debian/control, postgresql-client-8.1: Depend on postgresql-client-common
instead of postgresql-common.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- Fix bug that allowed any logged-in user to "SET ROLE" to any other
database user id (CVE-2006-0553).
- See upstream changelog for detailled changes.
* Remove debian/patches/80-cvs-pg_restore-COPY.patch: Upstream now.
* debian/rules: Use --as-needed linker option to avoid excessive
library dependencies.
* debian/control: Remove unnecessary dependencies from PL/Python and PL/Tcl
packages.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/patches/09-relax-sslkey-permscheck.patch: Do not check for any
particular group if the SSL key is group readable, to allow sharing a
common SSL certificate with other server processes.
* debian/control: Add ${shlibs:Depends} to packages which need it.
Closes: #348066
* debian/control, libecpg5: Remove obsolete Provides/Conflicts to ecpg.
* Add debian/patches/80-cvs-pg_restore-COPY.patch:
- Fix pg_restore to properly discard COPY data when trying to continue
after an error in a COPY statement. Formerly it thought the COPY data
was SQL commands, and got quite confused.
- Patch from Stephen Frost, taken from upstream CVS.
* Add debian/patches/12-krb5-multiusers.patch:
- Fix krb5 credential handling in libpq for multiple connections with
different users: Don't keep credentials in global variables, but pass
them around in a new krb5_info struct.
- Patch from Stephen Frost, proposed to be adopted upstream.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Fix bug introduced in 8.0 that could allow ReadBuffer to return an
already-used page as new, potentially causing loss of recently-committed
data.
- Fix for protocol-level Describe messages issued outside a
transaction or in a failed transaction.
- Fix character string comparison for locales that consider different
character combinations as equal, such as Hungarian.
This might require "REINDEX" to fix existing indexes on textual
columns.
- Set locale environment variables during postmaster startup to
ensure that plperl won't change the locale later. This fixes a problem
that occurred if the postmaster was started
with environment variables specifying a different locale than what
initdb had been told. Under these conditions, any use of plperl was
likely to lead to corrupt indexes. You may need "REINDEX" to fix
existing indexes on textual columns if this has happened to you.
(postgresql-common checks and aborts on this condition.)
- Allow more flexible relocation of installation directories.
Previous releases supported relocation only if all installation
directory paths were the same except for the last component.
This makes the test suite work with Debian's directory structure, so
that the horology test can find the timezones again and pass.
- Prevent crashes caused by the use of ISO-8859-5 and ISO-8859-9
encodings.
- Fix longstanding bug in strpos() and regular expression handling in
certain rarely used Asian multi-byte character sets.
- Fix bug where COPY CSV mode considered any \. to terminate the copy
data. The new code requires \. to appear alone on a line, as per
documentation.
- Make COPY CSV mode quote a literal data value of \. to ensure it
cannot be interpreted as the end-of-data marker.
- Various fixes for functions returning RECORDs.
- Fix processing of "postgresql.conf" so a final line with no newline
is processed properly.
- Fix bug in "/contrib/pgcrypto" gen_salt, which caused it not to use
all available salt space for MD5 and XDES algorithms. Salts for
Blowfish and standard DES are unaffected.
- Fix autovacuum crash when processing expression indexes.
- Fix "/contrib/dblink" to throw an error, rather than crashing, when
the number of columns specified is different from what's actually
returned by the query.
* Remove debian/patches/12-readline-prompt-ignore.patch: Adopted upstream.
* Bump postgresql-common dependencies to >= 39. This will ensure more
robust upgrades and other bug fixes.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Do not build postgresql-8.1, p-contrib-8.1, and the PL/ packages on mips
and mipsel, since the postmaster just SIGBUSes on these architectures and
nobody seems to be able to fix that.
* Add debian/patches/12-readline-prompt-ignore.patch: Do not prepend a
'\001' before the 'prompt ignore begin/end' readline commands; this is a
bash quirk, not a readline feature. Thanks to Aaron Schrab.
Closes: #343616
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream bug fix release.

pg_dropcluster.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.postrm: Check if a /etc/postgresql/8.1 subdirectory

* Do not install pg_config and its mo files into postgresql-server-dev-8.1
any more, since libpq-dev now ships it. Closes: #338231
* debian/control: Clean up contrib description. Closes: #338308
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Final 8.1.0 upstream release, first unstable upload.
* Build client libraries (-8.0 does not build them any more).
* Add debian/patches/11-server-includedir.patch: Change server include
directory to /usr/include/postgresql/8.1/server since we do want to
keep apart server include files.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1rc1-1) experimental; urgency=low

postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1beta4-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Upgrade to 8.1beta4 release.
* Adopt patches to new upstream version:

symbolic link before attempting to rmdir it. Closes: #333867
* debian/rules: Remove obsolete --disable-spinlocks build option for mips.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1beta3-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Upgrade to 8.1beta3 release.

sensibly stuffed into a patch.
* Adopt patches to new upstream version:
- 03-gettext-domains.patch
* Remove patches which are upstream now:
- 52-contrib-dbf2pg-errorcheck.patch
- 53-contrib-dbf2pg-textfield
* debian/patches/09-relax-sslkey-permscheck.patch: Use effective rather than
real group id for checking the private SSL certificate permissions. It
does not make any practical difference, but is more consistent.
* Rename patch 01-top-makefile.patch to 01-build-contrib.patch to give a
better idea of what it does.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1beta-4) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Add debian/patches/09-relax-sslkey-permscheck.patch:
- Relax security check on private SSL key file: The file is also
considered safe if it has owner and/or group "root", and if it is
group-readable (unless the group is something other than root or the
database owner group).
- See bug #327901.

.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1beta-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.postrm: Do not remove an empty /var/log/postgresql,
postgresql-common now cares for it to not break log rotation. (See
#325330)
* Remove debian/postgresql-server-dev-8.1.manpages: Do not install the
manpage, since it belongs to libpq-dev (which is currently built by
postgresql-8.0). Closes: #327379
* debian/postgresql-server-dev-8.1.install: Ship pg_config.
* Build-depend on libpq-dev to pull in libpq4 dependencies for binary
packages. This hack is necessary as long as we build libpq from
postgresql-8.0. Closes: #327765
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1beta-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* First public beta version.
.
postgresql-8.1 (8.0+8.1alpha-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream snapshot release. The first beta is close to be released, and
I want to be prepared for that.
* Package based on postgresql-8.0 8.0.3-13; don't build client libraries yet
until 8.1 final is released.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-13) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: Fix libpq4 description, it is compatible with servers
starting from 7.3.
* Move back client include files to /usr/include/postgresql/ for now to
not render all client packages unbuildable which have not yet converted
to pg_config:
- debian/rules: Configure with include dir /usr/include/postgresql.
- debian/libecpg-dev.install, debian/libpq-dev.install: Install files from
and to /usr/include/postgresql
- Add debian/patches/13_server_includedir.patch: Change server include
directory back to /usr/include/postgresql/8.0/server since we do want to
keep apart server include files.
- Closes: #322085

- debian/postgresql-contrib-8.0.install: Ship pgxml.so, drop pgxml_dom.so.
- Closes: #322777
* Add debian/patches/14-mips-gcc4.patch:
- Add a proper test-and-set function for mips and mipsel. Thanks to Thiemo
Seufer for the patch and Aurelien Jarno for his help. This now also
works with gcc 4.

that we have a proper patch for that.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-12) unstable; urgency=low

.
* Add debian/patches/12-disable-root-check.patch: Disable "am I root" test
in initdb and postmaster to be able to run the test suite at build time.
This check is already done in pg_createcluster.
* debian/rules: Remove all the chown/setuid crack and simply call "make
check" now; print the log files if the test fails.
* debian/patches/10-testsuite-params.patch: Disable authentication in the
test suite db since ident authentication does not work with fakeroot.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-10) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/rules: If the test suite fails, don't let the build fail but rather
cat the log files. Once the test suite calling works reliably, the
previous behaviour can be restored.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-9) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.2.
* debian/rules: Use start-stop-daemon instead of su to call the test suite
since su requires a terminal.

FTBFS with gcc-4.0.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-8) unstable; urgency=low
.
* postgresql-client-8.0: Now suggest postgresql-8.0; clarified the
description wrt the server package (see #313247).
* Fix README.Debian symlink.
* Add debian/patches/10-testsuite-params.patch: Use /tmp as the socket
directory when running the test suite.
* debian/rules: Call the test suite when building the package. Since
creating databases as root is not permitted, do this as "nobody" if run by
root (as on the buildds); don't do it at all if run with fakeroot.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-7) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Removed some redundant configure options which cdbs applies anyway.
* configure with --enable-thread-safety-force on HPPA since the configure
check triggers a kernel bug on the buildd. (See #315440)
* debian/postgresql-8.0.init: autovac-* functions in postgresql-common were
renamed to autovac_* to comply to POSIX shell standard (see #315551).

* debian/libpq-dev.{install,links}: Install pg_config into
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.0/bin to make it print correct paths, and install a
symlink into /usr/bin instead. Closes: #305200
* debian/rules: Change include dir configure option to
/usr/include/postgresql/8.0, so that different versions of
postgresql-server-dev-<version> do not conflict with each other. Since
applications using the libpq-dev are supposed to use pg_config, this
should not break them either.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.2-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release:
- Removed debian/patches/02-libpq-soname.patch, upstream adopted SONAME
change to libpq4.
* Ship "reindexdb" in -contrib.

doc-base.
.
postgresql-8.0 (8.0.1-4) experimental; urgency=low

proper package conflict. Closes: #303257
* Install pg_config in /usr/bin instead of 8.0-specific bin dir.
Closes: #302368
* debian/postgresql-8.0.init: Added autovacuum functions.

. Buffer overflow and 64-bit issues in contrib/intagg [CAN-2005-0246]
. Buffer overflows in the PL/PGSQL parser in gram.y [CAN-2005-0247]
. Insecure temporary files in make_oidjoins_check [CAN-2004-0977]
* Splitted development package into libpq-dev and postgresql-server-dev.
Closes: #280417
* Splitted libecpg4 into libecpg4, libecpg-compat1 and libpgtypes1.
