Ah, right, thanks for this. So it may actually be enough to disable the PL/PGSQL language before the upgrade and enable it again afterwards (if it was enabled before). > I have a feeling that this problem will affect people who originally > created their databases under Woody (or before) and upgraded from there, > so I think it should be mentioned in README.Debian at least.

Of course, this will be fixed soon. Thanks for your testing and feedback! Martin -- Martin Pitt http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer http://www.ubuntulinux.org Debian Developer http://www.debian.org
