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 ---- Marc G.

back concerning re-tarring up the distro after being released ...
Would take me 5 minutes to do ... should I leave, or re-package?

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.
