Thread: Packaging issue for 9.5-based packages

Packaging issue for 9.5-based packages

From

The version uploaded this week for PGDG's current postgresql-9.5 package set is '9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664', and appears to contain 9.5.10 binaries.

Ex:
$ dpkg-query -W postgresql-*9.5
postgresql-9.5 9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664.pgdg16.04+1
postgresql-client-9.5 9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664.pgdg16.04+1
postgresql-contrib-9.5 9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664.pgdg16.04+1
postgresql-doc-9.5
postgresql-plperl-9.5 9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664.pgdg16.04+1
postgresql-plpython-9.5 9.5.10-2~35.gitb212664.pgdg16.04+1
$
$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.5/bin/pg_ctl -V
pg_ctl (PostgreSQL) 9.5.10
$
$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.5/bin/psql -V
psql (PostgreSQL) 9.5.10

With the latest set of PostgreSQL releases announced this week, this can be confusing for those trying to update to 9.5.11. Other major releases appear unaffected.

To eliminate any confusion, can we rebuild postgresql-9.5 and related packages to the current 9.5.11 release?

Oops.

I had updated all git branches with the new version, and also pushed
git tags for all of them, but it seems I had forgotten to push the 9.5
branch, so when building 9.5, jenkins picked up the 9.5.10-2 version
which was previously in debian/changelog. Sorry for not noticing that
when promoting the packages.

I'll see if I can put a safety lock in place that prevents the
promotion of ~snapshot versions to the live distributions.

9.5.11-1 has been built properly now. Thanks for spotting!
