Uploaded postgresql 6.4-0 (source i386 all) to master



I am happy to announce the first Debian release of PostgreSQL 6.4.

This is at least partly an experimental release.  Use with care!
You have to dump and upload your database; it is best to upgrade your
system to postgresql-6.2.15 before you upgrade to this package,
because that release of 6.3.2 contains a pg_dump program with many bug
fixes and extra features (I backported it from 6.4).  Using it should
save you many problems with the upgrade.

I don't know any way to enforce this upgrade procedure, since you need
to know about it before you install the package.  I have put 6.3.2-15 into
the stable release, so with luck, most people will take that root byr
default.

Changes: 
 postgresql (6.4-0) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
   * Renamed binary package libpgsql to libpgsql2, which contains libpq.so.2,
     to permit packages still to be linked against libpq.so.1.  The libpgsql
     package has been extracted from postgresql-6.3.2-15 and turned into
     a separate source package.
   * New binary package postgresql-pl - procedural language
   * New binary package postgresql-contrib - additional facilities.
     This excludes the linux start/stop scripts (whose function is
     performed by /etc/init.d/postgresql) and the OS/2 version of libpq.so.
   * New binary package postgresql-test - regression test suite.
   * Added README.debian to ecpg package to warn users to add
     /usr/include/postgresql to the include path when compiling
   * Moved ecpg executable to /usr/bin
   * Exported LANG in /etc/postgresql/init.d; this is required to make
     the use of LANG effective in the backend.
   * Cleared out empty directories from /usr/doc/  Fixes bug#22213
     and bug#27621
   * Altered getopt results variable from char to int in pg_wrapper.c,
     which fixes bug#29428
   * Correction to do.maintenance script (to enclose vacuum and its
     parameters in quotes). Fixes bug#29838
   * Enclosed all tested variables in destroyuser script in quotes.
     Fixes bug#29989 (I hope).
   * Changed /etc/cron.d/postgresql to text for existence of script.
     This stops cron trying to run a non-existent do.maintenance
     script, if the package has been removed but not purged. Fixes bug#27193
   * Use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to build properly when the libpq.so library
     does not yet exist. Fixes bug#30073. Thanks to Christian Meder
     <meder@isr.uni-stuttgart.de>.
   * Changed do.maintenance to select databases by an SQL command rather
     than by listing the $PGDATA directory.
   * Repeated change to createuser script to exclude usernames that do
     not match the pattern '[a-zA-Z0-9_]+' This is because the GRANT
     bug still exists, which makes it impossible to grant privileges
     to such users.
