So this looks like a bugfix that we should backpatch, but on closer inspection it turns out that we need the rowtype OID to be fixed, which it isn't unless this: > -CATALOG(pg_shseclabel,3592) BKI_SHARED_RELATION BKI_WITHOUT_OIDS > +CATALOG(pg_shseclabel,3592) BKI_SHARED_RELATION BKI_ROWTYPE_OID(4066) > BKI_WITHOUT_OIDS BKI_SCHEMA_MACRO so I'm afraid this cannot be backpatched at all; if we did, the rowtype wouldn't match for already-initdb'd installations. I'm gonna push this to master only, which means you won't be able to rely on pg_shseclabel until 9.6. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
