we have a process which uses a transaction to a bunch of:
begin work;
select * into tmptable from main table;
commit work;
drop table tmptable;
sometimes (always?) tmptable gets dropped from the database, but for
some reason the file /usr/pgsql/data/base/dbname/tmptable does not get
deleted.
this means that the next select into tmptable and/or create table tmptable
fails because it can't create the table.
anyone know what's up, or a work around?
