Changes: 
 postgresql-common (71~bpo.1) sarge-backports; urgency=low
 .
   * Rebuilt for sarge.
 .
 postgresql-common (71) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add Swedish debconf translations. Thanks to Andreas Henriksson!
     Closes: #407865
   * Add Galician debconf translations. Thanks to Jacobo Tarrio!
     Closes: #408121
   * debian/supported-versions: Only 8.2 is supported in Ubuntu 7.04.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Check that $version and $cluster are still defined after
     untainting to avoid confusing (but harmless) error message.
     Closes: #406117
 .
 postgresql-common (70) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * t/050_encodings: Check that $LC_ALL dominates $LANG on pg_createcluster.
     This reproduces bug #403239.
   * pg_createcluster: If $LC_ALL is defined, fix $LANG to $LC_ALL. Servers
     prior to 8.2 get this wrong and fail over an invalid $LANG even if that is
     dominated by a valid $LC_ALL. Closes: #403239
   * Add Brazilian Portugese debconf translations. Thanks to André Luís Lopes!
     Closes: #403563
   * t/040_upgrade.t: Check that pg_upgradecluster does not have any stderr
     output (such as error messages from pg_restore, the server, or Perl
     warnings). This uncovers #403529.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Do not mangle {hba,ident,external_pid}_file values from
     old postgresql.conf if they do not exist at all. This removes the Perl
     warnings during upgrades from 7.4. Closes: #403529
   * debian/README.Debian: Describe default cluster setup and give an example
     for upgrading a cluster if a newer version with the same name already
     exists.
 .
 postgresql-common (69) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Urgency medium, only safe fixes and this needs to go into Etch due to
     first bug fix.
   * debian/supported_versions: Gracefully fall back on an unknown
     distribution, instead of failing package installation completely.
     Closes: #400628
   * debian/supported_versions: Some minor factorization.
   * Add Spanish debconf translations, thanks to Javier Fernández-Sanguino
     Peña! Closes: #402198
   * pg_createcluster: Add --locale and the various --lc_* options that initdb
     supports, and mention in POD that directly setting --encoding is not
     recommended. Closes: #395083
   * t/050_encodings.t: Use pg_createcluster's new --locale option in some test
     cases.
   * Make testsuite work with just one installed major version (mainly boils
     down to disabling upgrade tests).
 .
 postgresql-common (68) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/supported-versions: Add Debian 4.0. Closes: #399978
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Use adduser option --quiet for adding
     postgres to ssl-cert. Closes: #399979
   * pg_createcluster: Enable timestamps in log files by default. Other system
     log files have timestamps, too, and they are useful. Closes: #395554
   * t/040_upgrade.t: Fix number of tests if oldest installed PostgreSQL
     version is < 8.0.
 .
 postgresql-common (67) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   *t/040_upgrade.t: Skip the user/group name clash test when there are only
    servers >= 8.1 installed, since it does not apply to them and breaks the
    test suite.
   * t/040_upgrade.t: Check that the upgraded cluster still works after
     removing the old one, to check for stale paths of configuration files.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Adapt path to configuration files in the target
     cluster, so that they do not refer to the files of the old cluster. (This
     fixes an upgrade regression introduced in version 62).
   * debian/supported-versions: Add Ubuntu 7.04.
   * Add Italian debconf translations. Thanks to Luca Monducci
     <luca.mo@tiscali.it>! Closes: #396947
 .
 postgresql-common (66) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add Japanese debconf translations. Thanks to Hideki Yamane!
     Closes: #393055
   * pg_upgradecluster: Use -X no-data-for-failed-tables only for 8.1. In
     8.2beta2 this got renamed to --no-data-for-failed-tables.
 .
 postgresql-common (65) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * pg_upgradecluster: Quiesce dropdb for already existing 'postgres'
     database.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Avoid harmless, but confusing error messages about role
     creation:
     - Do not use -c for pg_dumpall, since the target roles should not yet
       exist anyway.
     - Filter out the 'CREATE (ROLE|USER)' command for the db superuser, since
       it will already exist.
     - Testsuite: Check that pg_upgradecluster output contains no server error
       messages.
     - Closes: #389930
 .
 postgresql-common (64) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix pg_ctlcluster regression from 63: 'database system is starting up'
     fatal error message caused immediate abortion of startup checks. Make the
     check easier and more robust, adapt test cases accordingly.
   * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Add check that PL/Perl works. Check that
     -plperl-X.Y. is installed in t/001_packages.t.
   * t/{040_upgrade.t,041_upgrade_custompaths.t}: Check for pg_restore error
     messages during upgrade.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Avoid pg_restore errors during upgrade (they were
     nonfatal, but look ugly:)
     - Drop 'postgres' db in 8.1+ target cluster if the source cluster already
       has it.
     - Do not use pg_restore's --create for template1.
     - Fix hardcoded library paths before dumping/restoring the cluster, not
       after, to avoid error messages about failed library loads.
 .
 postgresql-common (63) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * t/090_multicluster.t, t/100_upgrade_scripts.t: Replace hardcoded '8.1'
     versions in test data with appropriate $MAJORS values.
   * pg_createcluster: Add configure_8_2().
   * pg_ctlcluster, check_running_postmaster(): Check for both 'postmaster' and
     'postgres' processes to also work for 8.2.
   * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Also check for running 'postgres' processes
     (since that's how the server is called in 8.2+). Update number of tests
     everywhere.
   * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Fix regexp for netstat port grepping so that
     ports like '54321' do not match.
   * t/TestLib.pm, pidof(): Make pidof() strict enough to not catch the stats
     collector and writer subprocesses.
   * t/*.t: Various small adaptions to work with 8.2, too.
   * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Add full configuration for 8.1, to test
     8.1->8.2 upgrade.
   * pg_upgradecluster: When upgrading to 8.2, transition changed configuration
     options:
     - preload_libraries -> shared_preload_libraries
     - australian_timezones -> timezone_abbreviations
   * pg_ctlcluster: Instead of parsing pg_hba.conf, just try to connect with
     setting PGPASSWORD to a bogus value, and check for authentication errors.
     This is more robust and more elegant, and also covers nonstandard
     authentication schemes correctly. Closes: #388419
   * debian/supported-versions: Recklessly consider 8.2 as supported to avoid
     whining if 8.2 package gets backported.
 .
 postgresql-common (62) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * t/080_start.conf.t: Check that stop'ing a cluster works even if the
     cluster is disabled (test for bug #386996).
   * pg_ctlcluster: Allow 'stop' and 'autovac-stop' for disabled clustes.
     Closes: #386996
   * Reduce options passed to postmaster at runtime to shorten command line and
     make the configuration more obvious and explicit:
     - pg_ctlcluster: Do not pass unix_socket_dir/hba_file/ident_file if it is
       already defined in postgresql.conf.
     - pg_createcluster: If we create a cluster >= 8.0, set hba_file,
       ident_file, and external_pid_file in postgresql.conf.
     - 070_non_postgres_clusters.t: Fix expected output accordingly and
       use 'ls' for socket check instead of looking at the command line.
     - Closes: #384999
 .
 postgresql-common (61) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * pg_lsclusters: Remove trailing spaces from output, adapt test suite
     accordingly.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Correctly pass custom datadir to pg_createcluster.
     Closes: #385034
   * Add t/041_upgrade_custompaths.t: Test upgrading with a custom data
     directory and log file path (this also covers bug #385034).
 .
 postgresql-common (60) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Update Czech debconf translations, thanks to Miroslav Kure.
     Closes: #384757
   * t/090_multicluster.t: Check that $PGHOST and $PGDATABASE environment
     variables are respected and have the correct precedence. (This reproduces
     #385971). Now this test has full coverage of all libpq environment
     variables but $PGUSER (which is not used at all anywhere).
   * pg_wrapper: Do not override $PGDATABASE and $PGHOST with user_clusters
     map. Closes: #385971
   * Update Dutch debconf translations, thanks to Vincent Zweije.
     Closes: #386704
   * pg_createcluster: Fix POD to have consistent long-option syntax. Thanks to
     Bastian Kleineidam! (Part of bug #386148)
   * Improve handling of custom socket directories:
     - pg_createcluster: Create a nonexisting directory.
     - pg_dropcluster: Remove empty socket directory unless it's /tmp or
       /var/run/postgresql.
     - Thanks to Bastian Kleineidam for the suggestions.
     - t/030_errors.t: Do not create our custom socket dir ourselves any more,
       since pg_createcluster is now supposed to handle that (thus providing a
       test case).
     - Closes:  #386148
 .
 postgresql-common (59) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * t/001_packages.t: Check that p-plpython-X.Y is installed.
   * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that PL/Python works properly.
   * Update French debconf translations, thanks to Guilhelm Panaget
     <guilhelm.panaget@free.fr>. Closes: #382447
   * Add Portugese debconf translations, thanks to Rui Branco
     <ruipb@debianpt.org>. Closes: #381946
   * postgresql-common/debian/postgresql-common.config:
     - Ensure that the 'untransitioned' critical debconf note is always shown,
       not just once. Otherwise the preinst just fails without giving any hint
       about the reason after the first failure.
     - Additionally print a small hint to stderr, for the case that people do
       not use the interactive frontend.
     - Closes: #382134
 .
 postgresql-common (58) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * pg_wrapper: Improve manpage POD, describe the precise rules for cluster
     selection.
   * t/090_multicluster.t: Check for proper error message of pg_wrapper (no
     suitable default cluster) if several local clusters exist and none are on
     the default port.
   * pg_wrapper: Print proper error message if no cluster is suitable as
     default target and point to man pg_wrapper.
   * pg_upgradecluster:
     - Support /etc/postgresql-common/pg_upgradecluster.d/ hook scripts. These
       are called after creating the virgin new version cluster (phase 'init')
       and a second time after the upgrade is complete (phase 'finish').
       PostgreSQL extensions like PostGIS can use these hooks to initialize
       metadata which must not be upgraded from the old cluster, but
       initialized from scratch. Closes: #351571
     - Document this feature in the manpage POD.
     - If upgrade scripts are present, call pg_restore with the new -X
       no-data-for-failed-tables option to not clutter already existing tables
       in the new cluster with data from the old cluster. Abort with an error
       if the installed pg_restore does not support this option.
     - debian/postgresql-common.dirs: Ship
       /etc/postgresql-common/pg_upgradecluster.d/.
   * Add t/120_pg_upgradecluster_scripts.t: Selftest for pg_upgradecluster.d
     hooks and proper pg_restore -X no-data-for-failed-tables behaviour.
   * PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_locales(): Fix parsing of locales out of
     pg_controldata output by calling it under the locale 'C' and being more
     liberal in the regular expression. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/50755)
 .
 postgresql-common (57) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/postgresql-common.{preinst,config}: Check if there is a removed,
     but not purged pre-transition postgresql-client or postgresql package.
     Packages in this state subtly break operation, but are not caught by the
     Conflicts: statements. Display a critical note in that case and abort
     installation. Closes: #368827
 .
 postgresql-common (56) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/init.d-functions, status(): Exit with code 3 if any cluster is
     down, to get a bit closer to LSB specification (which does not
     sufficiently specify the case of controlling multiple processes in one
     init script). Thanks to Ross Boylan <RossBoylan@stanfordalumni.org>!
     Closes: #358152
   * pg_ctlcluster:
     - start: Create an external PID file /var/run/postgresql/
       <version>-<cluster>.pid for 8.0+ versions (7.4 doesn't support this yet)
       unless 'external_pid_file' is already set in postgresql.conf.
       Closes: #180849, #184782
     - stop: Remove this external pid file (this should be done by the
       postmaster itself, but 8.1.4 does not).
   * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that starting a cluster creates a PID
     file in /var/run/postgresql/, but doesn't if external_pid_file was set
     explicitly.
   * t/030_errors.t: Adapt to new PID file creation behaviour.
   * t/030_errors.t: modprobe loop before setting up the test loopback device.
   * debian/supported-versions: Add Ubuntu 6.10.
 .
 postgresql-common (55) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Add missing procps dependency to p-common. Closes: #369768
   * pg_dropcluster: Clean up half-existing broken cluster configurations
     (which happen when disk becomes full, etc) instead of failing. (part of
     bug #368335).
   * t/030_errors.t: Test that pg_dropcluster copes with broken cluster
     configurations.
   * debian/maintscripts-functions: Do not fail package installation if
     pg_createcluster fails (/var might be full and the admin might want to use
     a different directory). Merely print out an error message and point to
     pg_createcluster and its manpage. (part of bug #368335)
   * t/030_errors.t: Create a temporary 10 MB loop mount on /var/lib/postgresql
     and check that pg_createcluster fails with an appropriate error and leaves
     no cruft behind.
   * pg_createcluster: Call pg_dropcluster to clean up cruft if anything fails
     in the cluster creation process. This avoids an inconsistent system if e.
     g. running out of disk space during installation. Closes: #368335
 .
 postgresql-common (54) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * pg_wrapper: Support specifying remote clusters with $PGCLUSTER, --cluster,
     user_clusters, and ~/.postgresqlrc with 'host:[port]' as cluster name.
     Closes: #340162
   * t/090_multicluster.t: Add tests for above feature.
   * user_clusters.5, postgresqlrc.5: Document format for remote clusters.
   * debian/supported-versions:
     - Also recognize Ubuntu dapper version number '6.06LTS'.
     - Fix bashism: 'type -p' -> type.
   * debian/control: Have p-common always depend on the recent p-client-common,
     since the latter ships PgCommon.pm. If the library is out of date, this
     can break operations horribly. Closes: #369289
   * Add Dutch debconf translation, thanks to Vincent Zweije
     <zweije@xs4all.nl>! Closes: #369237
   * t/TestLib.pm: If the test suite is called with FAILURE=shell environment,
     spawn bash before continuing. This makes it easier to debug obscure
     failures.
   * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Check that PostgreSQL TCP sockets are closed.
     Adapt number of tests in all t/*.t.
   * t/090_multicluster.t: Just before checking for cleanness, wait until all
     TIME_WAIT sockets on the server ports went away, so that the following
     tests will not stumble over them. This seems to be a 7.4 server bug which
     is fixed in 8.1 at least.
   * t/050_encodings.t: Add tests for recent SQL injection vulnerabilities
     through invalidly encoded strings and usage of \' escaping.
 .
 postgresql-common (53) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Urgency medium since this fixes a quite serious bug; no intrusive changes
     otherwise.
   * Add Russian debconf translation, thanks to Yuriy Talakan'
     <yt@amur.elektra.ru>! Closes: #367152
   * t/001_packages.t: Check that the locales used in the tests are installed
     so that the test suite fails early if not.
   * t/050_encodings.t, t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Use ru_RU{,.UTF-8} for
     tests, since they have more potential for failure.
   * t/050_encodings.t:
     - Add check for https://launchpad.net/bugs/39177: Correct encoding of
       server error messages under various locales.
     - Add check for bug #343057: Correct startup if client_encoding and
       lc_messages settings do not match.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Set LC_CTYPE environment variable to unbreak server error
     messages. (Closes https://launchpad.net/bugs/39177). By only setting CTYPE
     we also avoid reintroducing bug #343057. (Yay for postmaster being so anal
     about its environment)
   * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Consider LC_CTYPE a safe environment variable.
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Bump version comparison for restarting
     postgresql servers to this version, to ensure that above bug fix becomes
     active.
 .
 postgresql-common (52) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.2.
   * Merge support for system wide snakeoil SSL certificate from Ubuntu branch
     and eliminate our custom SSL certificate juggling:
     - debian/control:
       + Depend on ssl-cert which provides snakeoil cert and the ssl-cert
         group.
       + Remove Recommends: openssl.
     - debian/postgresql-common.postinst:
       + Remove generation of PostgreSQL specific SSL certificate.
       + Add postgres user to the ssl-cert group on upgrades to this version or
         on fresh installs.
     - pg_createcluster:
       + Adapt cert/key paths to snakeoil.
       + Update manpage documentation POD.
       + Enable SSL only if SSL key can be accessed with the cluster owner's
         privileges.
     - debian/README.Debian: Update documentation of SSL certificate handling.
 .
 postgresql-common (51) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * PgCommon.pm: Add function read_pg_hba() to parse pg_hba.conf.
   * Add t/005_PgCommon.t: Designated for testing PgCommon.pm library
     functions; test read_pg_hba() for now.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Check pg_hba.conf if the database superuser can connect
     locally without a password. If not, disable startup checks to avoid asking
     for the superuser password. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/37640)
   * t/030_errors.t: Test above pg_ctlcluster checks.

 .
   * t/030_errors.t: Check that pg_wrapper and administration programs give
     sane error messages instead of 'Invalid symbolic link blabla' for a
     nonexisting cluster.
   * pg_ctlcluster, pg_dropcluster: Print meaningful error message on
     nonexisting cluster. Closes: #360701
   * pg_dropcluster: Rename --stop-server to --stop to be consistent with
     pg_createcluster's --start, and update documentation. --stop-server still
     works for backward compatibility, though. Closes: #360697
   * debian/README.Debian:
     - Update createuser invocation description for 8.1+. Closes: #361731
     - Update autovacuum daemon description; explain integrated autovacuuming
       for 8.1+.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Fail autovac-* commands for 8.1+ clusters. Closes: #360888
   * debian/init.d-functions: Fix handling of failing pg_ctlcluster
     invocations. Closes: #362825
   * pg_createcluster: Explain syntax of the environment file in more detail.
   * Add t/110_integrate_cluster.t: Test various scenarios of integrating
     already existing clusters.
   * pg_createcluster: Determine correct owner and group when integrating an
     already existing cluster.

   * debian/supported-versions:
     - Do not fail the package installation if an unknown LSB release is

   * pg_createcluster: Add option -p/--port to set the cluster port.
     Closes: #359249
   * t/030_errors.t: Check that pg_createcluster's --port option validates the
     port number (invalid number, already used port).
   * t/090_multicluster.t: Check that pg_createcluster's --port option works.
   * t/050_encodings.t: Check correct input/output with Latin-1 and UTF-8
     client encodings in all server locale/encoding combinations.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Do not set LC_ALL and LANG environment variables for the

     breaks sometimes. Thanks to Olleg Samoylov for analyzing this.
     Closes: #343057
   * t/TestLib.pm: Sort list of major versions, since we rely on a sorted list.
   * debian/init.d-functions, do_ctl_all(): Fix 'return' statements to
     explicitlly return 0 to not break with dash.

     make use of this function in the test suite, too.
   * t/TestLib.pm: Use change_ugid() in exec_as() get auxiliary groups. This
     makes the test suite work with SSL keys which are only readable by

     - PgCommon.pm, set_cluster_start_conf(): Always create start.conf with
       0644 mode by default, but preserve permissions when changing the file.

     standard client program in 8.1.
   * pg_createcluster: Do not create autovacuum log file for servers >= 8.1.
   * PgCommon.pm: For determining avac_enable on 8.1+ servers, read
     "autovacuum" setting from postgresql.conf.
   * pg_maintenance: Use avac_enable flag instead of checking for the
     pg_autovacuum pid file to determine whether autovacuuming is enabled. This
     is a more general approach and works for all server versions.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Do not attempt to start pg_autovacuum on 8.1+ servers.
   * pg_createcluster: Add hook for version specific function to configure
     postgresql.conf.
   * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 7.4 clusters:
     - tcpip_socket = true
     - stats_row_level = true
   * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 8.0 clusters:
     - listen_addresses = '*'
     - stats_row_level = true
   * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 8.1 clusters:
     - listen_addresses = '*'
     - stats_row_level = on
     - autovacuum = on
   * PgCommon.pm, set_conf_value(): Preserve comments.
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Generalized restarting of all clusters
     to make it automatically work for future versions.
   * pg_createcluster: Adapt pg_hba.conf to the current default (md5 for host
     connections, ident sameuser for local ones); this obsoletes the
     default-pg_hba.conf patches in the server packages.
   * user_clusters: Update comments, throw out bogus documentation.
     Closes: #324749
   * pg_createcluster: Only mangle configuration files (pg_hba.conf, SSL
     enabling, etc.) if we create a new cluster, not if we integrate an already
     existing one. Closes: #323878
   * Add debian/postgresql-common.logrotate: Simple log rotation.

   * pg_maintenance: Change directory to / before changing uid to avoid "could
     not change directory" errors. Closes: #318604.
   * Drop upgrade-scripts/all_vacuum_t1.sql since it causes too much trouble
     with big databases. Replace it with upgrade-scripts/all_test_t1.sql which
     just counts the tables in the database. This should be unintrusive, fast,
     and still appropriate for testing the upgrade scripts mechanism.
     Closes: #319035
   * pg_ctlcluster: Check if autovacuum log file symlink is dangling and avoid
     warnings about uninitialized warnings. Instead print out a meaningful
     error message. Closes: #318717

     purge.
   * pg_createcluster: If /etc/postgresql-common/root.crt exists, symlink

   * Add infrastructure for executing SQL or executable scripts on clusters and
     databases on upgrade. This can be useful to apply security updates which
     need to change database layouts (like for CAN-2005-1409), do checks on
     upgrades, and maybe other things.
     - Add run-upgrade-scripts and call it in the postinst.
     - Add /usr/share/postgresql-common/upgrade-scripts/ where scripts are
       stored into.
     - Add /usr/share/postgresql-common/upgrade-scripts/SPECIFICATION.
     - This checks for available databases, thus will not fail on a nonexisting
       template0. Closes: #312707
     - Tests are run right after starting all clusters. Also, the package
       installation does not fail if the upgrade fails on a single cluster or
       database. Closes: #308685
   * pg_ctlcluster: pg_ctl's -o option is not cumulative, fix postmaster
     argument passing. This ensures that "-c unix_socket_directory" is always
     passed to the postmaster.
   * pg_createcluster: Do not configure a cluster for SSL if the owner is not
     the owner of /etc/postgresql-common/postgresql.pem. This fixes cluster
     creation for non-postgres owners.
   * Add test 130_nonpostgres_clusters: Check cluster creation and operation
     for a cluster owned by "nobody".
   * Add upgrade-scripts/all_vacuum_t1.sql: Upgrade script that will just
     vacuum all available databases. This is pretty useful and harmless, and is
     a good thing to test upgrade scripts at a larger scale.
   * init.d-functions: Rename autovac-* to autovac_* to comply to POSIX shell
     identifier rules. Closes: #315551

   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Generate an SSL certificate and key if
     it doesn't exist yet and openssl is installed. Closes: #212526
   * debian/control: Recommend openssl and explain its purpose.
   * pg_createcluster: If SSL certificate and key exist, symlink it to the
     cluster directory where the postmaster looks for them and enable SSL in
     the configuration.
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Only restart servers when configuring.
   * debian/init.d-functions: "pg_ctl restart" does not seem to re-read certain
     configuration parameters like the socket directory, so replace it with
     stop+start.
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Create /var/run/postgresql before
     creating the initial cluster to ensure that the socket directory will be
     present. Closes: #312899
   * Added debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Clean up on purge.
   * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Check whether the user postgres exists
     before calling adduser to avoid confusing warning messages.

   * pg_ctlcluster: Change directory to /var/lib/postgresql to avoid error
     messages when doing an operation in a directory which the database owner
     cannot access.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Pass the default socket directory to the postmaster,
     otherwise it will always be /tmp if unix_socket_directory is not specified
     in postgresql.conf. Closes: #314537
   * Added tests/041_server_default_socketdir: Check that the socket is created
     in /var/run/postgresql if unix_socket_directory is not specified.
   * pg_ctlcluster:
     - On startup, check for a stale or invalid PID file and remove it if
       appropriate.
     - On stop, bail out on an invalid PID file. Closes: #304466.
   * Added tests/021_invalid_pidfile: Corrupt the pid file in various ways
     while the server is running and down. Also check double start/stop.

 postgresql-common (17) unstable; urgency=low

   * PgCommon.pm, cluster_port_running(): Attempt to connect() to the server
     socket for probing if the server is running. The previous method of using
     'psql -l' asked for a password if md5/password authentication is used
     locally. Closes: #314292
   * testsuite: Ignore whitespace changes in expected vs. actual output.
   * tests/100_encodings: Fix race condition when showing postmaster processes:
     If we catch the postmaster right at fork() time, ps shows two postmaster
     instances instead of one. Filter them away to get the expected output.

   * pg_createcluster: Add --logfile parameter.
   * pg_wrapper(1): Clarify synopsis.

   * debian/maintscripts-functions: Do not create a default "main" cluster when
     upgrading a server package.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Handle more configuration parameter transitions:
     - syslog -> log_destination
     - log_statement: false/true -> none/all
     - log_{pid,timestamp,hostname,source_port} -> log_line_prefix
     - obsolete max_expr_depth
   * pg_upgradecluster: Use new replace_conf_value() function which
     produces nicer configuration files with transitioned parameters.
   * Add test 120_obsolete_confparams: Upgrade a 7.4 cluster with all
     possible 7.4 options enabled.
   * PgCommon.pm: Fix parsing of autovacuum parameters.
   * pg_ctlcluster: Respect the avac_debug autovacuum configuration option.
   * pg_createcluster: Since the new default socket directory is
     /var/run/postgresql, explicitly set /tmp as socket directory for clusters
     if /var/run/postgresql is not writable by the cluster owner.
   * PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_socketdir(): If unix_socket_directory is not
     specified explicitly in postgresql.conf, default to /var/run/postgresql
     for postgres-owned clusters. Closes: #313651
   * pg_ctlcluster: Do not sleep at all after starting the postmaster if we
     don't run the autovacuum daemon; sleep for a full second if we do.

   * pg_createcluster: Add option --start to start the new cluster right after
     creating it.
   * tests/000_existing_clusters: Check for stale postmaster and pg_autovacuum
     processes.
   * testsuite:
     - Temporarily stop existing servers and move away existing files before
       executing the tests.
     - Restore the original files after the tests.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Check return value of pg_dumpall and psql and fail if
     they are not successful.
   * pg_createuser: Fix indentation of socket warning.
   * pg_upgradecluster: Check if cluster is running, exit with an error if not.
   * pg_createcluster: Added option --encoding to override detection from
     locale.
   * pg_createcluster: Guess default encoding from locale for clusters older
     than 8.0 to get the same behaviour as for 8.0.
   * debian/control: Conflict to postgresql-7.4 << 1:7.4.8-5 since earlier
     versions do not support non-ASCII encodings (due to missing pg_encoding).
   * pg_ctlcluster: Check that the cluster owner uid/gid really exist.
     Closes: #311546
   * pg_lsclusters: Ensure that there is at least one space between the colums.
   * Added tests/100_encodings which checks cluster creation and updates
     for different encodings and locales.

     really useful.
   * PgCommon: Fix cluster_info for avac_logfile to make pg_dropcluster clean
     away the autovacuum log file.
   * pg_maintenance: -v only influences vacuumdb output now, always show
     clusters.
   * Added a test suite:
     - Test scripts are in tests/*.
     - Expected output is in tests/*.ex.
     - Test suite is run with './testsuite' as root.

     - Converted optional third parameter to option --datadir.
     - Rework POD to have a separate OPTIONS section.
     - Add option description to online help.

   * pg_upgradecluster:
     - Initial framework for handling obsolete configuration parameters.
     - Handle transition of {tcpip_socket, virtual_host} -> listen_addresses.
   * debian/init.d-functions: If /lib/lsb/init-functions is available, use LSB
     init script functions.

     If it does not come up after 5 seconds, fail and print the recent log
     portion.

     pg_maintenance.
   * pg_createcluster: Default to cluster owner 'postgres' if no owner is

   * pg_ctlcluster: Fix pg_controldata output parsing and call pg_controldata
     under locale 'C' to work with all locales. Closes: #310716
   * pg_createcluster: Added --socket-dir option.
   * PgCommon.pm: Fix declaration of @lines in set_conf_value() to avoid
     duplicating the lines in configuration files.
   * PgCommon.pm: Converted to use strict to avoid future errors.
   * pg_maintenance: Removed option '-e' from vacuumdb call (leftover from
     debugging).
   * PgCommon.pm, user_cluster_map(): If several clusters exist, but no
     mapping is configured, return not only the default port's cluster version,
     but also its name. This fixes the socket directory determination for this
     case.
   * debian/rules: Fix clean target to remove the manpages created from POD
     again.
