Hi Greg:
I notice you're the upstream maintainer of DBD::Pg (thanks!). In
Debian we have version 2.15 (which we believe to be the newest).

According to search.cpan.org, however, apparently you uploaded 2.8.8
after 2.15.1, which confuses Debian (since our version numbers
consider 2.15.1 2.8.8).
I'm not totally sure how we should proceed in this case -- we can bump
the epoch assuming you are going to linearly increase your versions
from 2.8.8 onward (2.8.9, 2.9.0, etc); however, the situation with the
2.15 version is confusing to me personally.
Note that version 2.8.7 (where you say that bug exists) only exists in
stable -- testing and unstable both have 2.15.1.
It perplexes me how this version even managed to index properly in
PAUSE -- I had always thought 2.8xx would be considered greater than
2.15xx (by PAUSE/Perl, which compare version numbers based on a
floating-point comparison).

Version 2.8.8 of DBD::Pg is now available on CPAN, which fixes the
quote.c bug in 2.8.7
