Well, the interesting point here is that if these scripts start issuing CREATE/DROP EXTENSION, they'd work just fine on non-core PLs, assuming the PL authors get with the program and provide extension packaging. The only difference between core and non-core PLs will be that the latter require superuser permission to install, where the former require only database owner (at least in the trusted variant). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
