Bug reference: 1152

PostgreSQL version: 7.4
Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux sid
Description: Primary key not applied in inherited tables
Details:
Hi,
I have the following set of tables
The main table is:
Titulo
And the following tables inherits the main table:
TituloCheque
TituloEDI
TituloDocumento
All these tables have the primary key on "idTitulo" which is inherited in
all tables from table Titulo.
The problem is:
When inserting a register in TituloCheque, postgresql didn't complain when
the value for idTitulo is already present on table Titulo.
Result:
Because of a bug in my software when generating the unnique ids for inserts
in Titulo (or any of the inherited tables) two registers in the table Titulo
(actually one in TituloEDI and other in TituloCheque). With the same Primary
Key value.
Expected Behavior:
Postgresql should refuse the insert of the second register with the same
primary key value.
