Problem between inheritance and references - Mailing list pgsql-general

I'm just beginning with inheritance and I have problems using
REFERENCES integrity constraints to an inherited table. The schema is
attached. When I try the second INSERT, I get:

psql:./auth.sql:22: ERROR:  <unnamed> referential integrity violation - key referenced from users not found in
authentication

But the key does exist:

auth=# select * from Authentication;
 id
----
  1
(1 row)

auth=# select * from Passwords;
 id |  password
----+------------
  1 | trustnoone
(1 row)
