Applied to CVS HEAD, 8.2 and 8.1. If we want to start tracking the grantor as a shared dependency, and have REVOKE work per spec (i.e. only revoke the privileges actually granted by the role executing REVOKE), those are separate patches (and they should be applied only to HEAD). This patch merely fixes the fact that pg_dumpall failed to work for busted databases. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
