The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
triggers tablename are not rename if table are renamed.

Long Description
I had a database where I during development created a new table to test a new design. On this table postgresql
automaticcreated triggers because it used foreign keys. 

After the test went ok, I rename the table to it "production name". During al test went ok - apparently.

But today during a update run (Importing data via XML) I got complains about missing Relations where to old table name
wasissued. 

I did a dump at (pg_dump) and looked at it and in the end I found that the triggers for example:
CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER "<unnamed>" AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON "alternativhold"  NOT DEFERRABLE INITIALLY IMMEDIATE
FOREACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE "RI_FKey_check_ins" ('<unnamed>', 'nyalternativhold', 'hold', 'UNSPECIFIED', 'holdnr',
'holdnr');

contains a reference to the old table name nyalternativhold.

I deleted the 3 triggers and the systems runs again.

Best regards

Søren,
