I should point out that the bug I reported about dependencies and changing the type of a serial column still exists.

Once you change a serial column to something else, you cannot ever change the default IIRC...

Well, that second line is *definitely* a SERIAL column linkage.

Is it possible they did "create table xa_url(id bigserial, ...)" and
then later changed the default expression for the column?


'k, am checking into this ... is it a simple matter of removing that second record above from pg_depend to "fix" the pg_dump issue, or something more involved then that?


AFAIR, removing that pg_depend entry would be enough to decouple the
sequence so it appears as an independent object in the pg_dump output.
However, I'm still wondering exactly what is wrong, if anything ---
does the pg_dump output not reload correctly?  If so, what happens
exactly when you try?
