Hi,

some months ago I've asked for a suggestion for this bug:

create table a (      id serial primary key,      something text
);

create table b (      morething text
) inherits (a);

create table c (      trouble int references b;
);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit trigger(s) for FOREIGN KEY check(s)
ERROR:  PRIMARY KEY for referenced table "b" not found


How is possible to resolve this bug?
How is possible to talk about a ORDBMS with this kind of error?

I've looked for workaround, but:

create table d (      mytext text,      primary key (id)
) inherits (a);
ERROR:  CREATE TABLE: column 'id' named in key does not exist

How can I help you to fix this?


Best wishes,             \fer
