PostgreSQL 7.4.3 Now Available ...

From
"Marc G. Fournier"
Date:
After several fixes were backpatches to the 7_4_STABLE branch, we have now
released a 7.4.3.  As the list of Changes since 7.4.2 is quite small, they
are included in this email:

       * Fix temporary memory leak when using non-hashed aggregates (Tom)
       * ECPG fixes, including some for Informix compatibility (Michael)
       * Fixes for compiling with thread-safety, particularly Solaris (Bruce)
       * Fix error in COPY IN termination when using the old network
         protocol (ljb)
       * Several important fixes in pg_autovacuum (Matthew T. O'Connor)
       * Fix problem with reading tar-format dumps on NetBSD and BSD/OS (Bruce)
       * Several JDBC fixes
       * Fix ALTER SEQUENCE RESTART where last_value equals the restart
         value (Tom)
       * Repair failure to recalculate nested sub-selects (Tom)
       * Fix problems with non-constant expressions in LIMIT/OFFSET
       * Support FULL JOIN with no join clause, such as X FULL JOIN Y ON
         TRUE (Tom)
       * Fix another zero-column table bug (Tom)
       * Improve handling of non-qualified identifiers in GROUP BY clauses
         in sub-selects (Tom)
       * Do not generate "NATURAL CROSS JOIN" when decompiling rules (Tom)
       * Add checks for invalid field length in binary COPY (Tom)
       * Avoid locking conflict between ANALYZE and LISTEN/NOTIFY
       * Numerous translation updates (various contributors)

As always, this release is available on all our mirrors, viable at:

      http://www.postgresql.org/mirrors-www.html

A Debian package of this new release has been uploaded to the Debian
archive and should be available from Debian mirrors by tomorrow.

Anyone else having trouble expanding the archives? I tried the tar.gz and
the tar.bz2, both gave errors on decompression.

I verified the tar.gz late last night.  Maybe you forgot to download in
binary mode?

Do those get pushed out into the FC update system, to be picked
automatically by the update program?  Or is that only for security
updates?

AFAIK it'll get pushed out the same as any other FC update.

I've already built (S)RPMS for FC 2 by just modifying spec file and
modifying some patches for rpm build. All are tested and they are working
fine. Oh, also updated to latest jdbc drivers.

If anyone needs, I've uploaded them to:

http://www.gunduz.org/postgresql/packages-7.4.3/

SRPM and -debuginfo will be uploaded tonight, since they are big files
and my DSL is a bit slow. The UPLOAD-NOT-FINISHED file will be removed
after these packages will be uploaded. BTW, spec file has been uploaded,
too.

Regards,

I notice we have yet to get a directory for 7.4.3 under /binary,
are you planning on putting them up on the ftp server as well?

Along those lines is anyone planning on doing a redhat 7.3 build ?

I'm running behind on this cycle.  Been swamped at work.
