This collation has an empty pg_collation.collversion column, instead
of being set to the same value as "und-x-icu" to track its version.
postgres=# select * from pg_collation where collname='unicode' \gx
-[ RECORD 1 ]-------+--------
oid | 963
collname | unicode
collnamespace | 11
collowner | 10
collprovider | i
collisdeterministic | t
collencoding | -1
collcollate |
collctype |
colliculocale | und
collicurules |
collversion |
The original patch implements this as an INSERT in which it would be easy to
fix I guess, but in current HEAD it comes as an entry in
include/catalog/pg_collation.dat:
{ oid => '963',
descr => 'sorts using the Unicode Collation Algorithm with default
settings',
collname => 'unicode', collprovider => 'i', collencoding => '-1',
colliculocale => 'und' },
Should it be converted back into an INSERT or better left
in this file and collversion being updated afterwards?
