TABLE: if the command is executed by someone other than the table owner (eg, a superuser) and the table has a toast table, the toast table's pg_type row ends up with the wrong typowner, ie, the command issuer not the table owner. This is quite harmless for most purposes, since no interesting permissions checks consult the pg_type row. However, it could lead to unexpected failures if one later tries to drop the role that issued the command (in 8.1 or 8.2), or strange warnings from pg_dump afterwards (in 8.3 and up, which will allow the DROP ROLE because we don't create a "redundant" owner dependency for table rowtypes). Problem identified by Cott Lang. Back-patch to 8.1. The problem is actually far older --- the CLUSTER variant can be demonstrated in 7.0 --- but it's mostly cosmetic before 8.1 because we didn't track ownership dependencies before 8.1. Also, fixing it before 8.1 would require changing the call signature of heap_create_with_catalog(), which seems to carry a nontrivial risk of breaking add-on modules. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
