Running EXPLAIN on a view that has an aggregate and uses an index
results in the error "bogus varno: 5". At least I think the aggregate
and index are necessary -- removing either from the following example
allows EXPLAIN to succeed:
test=> CREATE TABLE foo (x integer);
CREATE TABLE
test=> CREATE INDEX foo_x_idx ON foo (x);
CREATE INDEX
test=> CREATE VIEW fooview1 AS SELECT count(*) FROM foo WHERE x < 10;
CREATE VIEW
test=> CREATE VIEW fooview2 AS SELECT * FROM foo WHERE x < 10;
CREATE VIEW
test=> CREATE VIEW fooview3 AS SELECT count(*) FROM foo;
CREATE VIEW
test=> CREATE VIEW fooview4 AS SELECT * FROM foo;
CREATE VIEW
test=> \set VERBOSITY verbose
test=> EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM fooview1;
