Thread: pg_filedump

Hello hackers,

I'm trying to get something from pg_filedump.  However, the version
published in sources.redhat.com/rhdb doesn't grok a lot of changes in
current CVS.  I changed all those and made it compile... but looks like
that's only the easy part.  I get bogus values everywhere (block sizes,
item numbers, etc).

Does somebody know whether it's mantained for current versions?

AFAIK, no one has yet updated it for 7.3's changes in tuple header
format.  That needs to get done sometime soon ...
