using 8.2 and 8.3

here's (psychological) problem as I see it:

# set search_path=old_schema;
#
# create sequence new_schema.seq1;
#
# create table new_schema.table1(
#    col1 integer default nextval( 'seq1' )
# );

using old_schema.seq1, not new_schema.seq1

and imho to make matters more difficult to troubleshoot:

# \dt table1 -> does not show which schema for seq1

Must admit I thought you were wrong, but having tested it, I think I see what you mean.

If the schema in question is in the search_path then it doesn't get displayed. If you've forgotten what your search_path is set to then that can cause confusion.

Not a problem I see much of since I very rarely change my search_path. I refer to schema.table by preference.
