Saying "that bug is impossible" is the denial of reality.
You haven't posted a reproduceable bug, nor is this new to 9.0. You have just noticed a production feature that was specifically put there by user request. The feature exists, has done for some time now and it's acting as it should. This is about what happens in production, not your laptop. The required behaviour in-production is to assume that the sysadmin has configured it correctly and we wait for them to fix the problem. The previous complaints were from people who felt they wanted to avoid invalid backups. Personally, I'd say there were many issues that are new to 9.0 that really are important, and that this isn't one of them. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
