We can only determine them (using pg_controldata through get_cluster_locales()) for <= 8.3 clusters, which are obsolete in sid/lenny.

Closes: #333803 * pg_createcluster: Do not enable SSL on 7.4 clusters since enabling it without enabling the TCP socket breaks. * Add support for configuring the start/stop behavior in start.conf: - debian/init.d-functions: Only start/stop the cluster in 'auto' mode. - pg_ctlcluster: Only operate in 'auto' and 'manual' modes, print an error in 'disabled' mode. - pg_createcluster: Create a default start.conf file. - pg_dropcluster: Remove start.conf file. - architecture.html, pg_createcluster POD: Document the file and the possible options. - Closes: #224047 * Fix testsuite expected output for new upstream versions (7.4.9 and 8.0.4). -- Martin Pitt Thu, 27 Oct 2005 23:09:45 -0400 postgresql-common (28) unstable; urgency=high * Urgency high since this version only fixes a very important bug with a safe patch. * Moved package development to bazaar-ng, updated debian/README.Devel. * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Revert change of version 26: Do create the socket directory in the postinst, otherwise clusters will default to socket directory /tmp in some cases. -- Martin Pitt Thu, 20 Oct 2005 12:56:36 +0200 postgresql-common (27) unstable; urgency=low * Changed my debuild alias to explicitly ignore .arch-ids directories (a mere -i catched some, but not all arch directories). Closes: #328204 * Add lintian overrides for missing manpages; manpages are provided by postgresql-client-X.Y packages. * pg_ctlcluster: Have autovac-* commands error out with a meaningful message instead of claiming success if pg_autovacuum is not available. * pg_ctlcluster: - Increase the timeout for the started postmaster to 30 seconds to cope with slow startup. Closes: #320444 - Immediately fail if the postmaster produced log output and does not run any more. This avoids unnecessary timeouts on configuration errors and the like. * pg_createcluster: Listen on localhost by default only since upstream considers listening on all interfaces by default not safe enough. Closes: #318820 * pg_dropcluster: Handle missing data directories gracefully. Closes: #330135 -- Martin Pitt Wed, 28 Sep 2005 22:59:04 +0200 postgresql-common (26) unstable; urgency=low * Fix permissions of socket directory: - debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Drop creation of socket directory since we do it in the init script anyway. - debian/init.d-functions: Create directory with permissions 2775 instead of 755 and also correct the permissions of an already existing directory. - Closes: #326049 * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Remove --no-create-home option from adduser call to ensure that the postgres user always has a sensible home directory that does not break "su - postgres". * pg_wrapper: Give a meaningful error message if no client packages are installed, instead of "Invalid PostgreSQL cluster version".

Closes: #320810 * pg_wrapper, debian/postgresql-common.links: Wrap reindexdb, it is a standard client program in 8.1. * pg_createcluster: Do not create autovacuum log file for servers >= 8.1. * PgCommon.pm: For determining avac_enable on 8.1+ servers, read "autovacuum" setting from postgresql.conf. * pg_maintenance: Use avac_enable flag instead of checking for the pg_autovacuum pid file to determine whether autovacuuming is enabled. This is a more general approach and works for all server versions. * pg_ctlcluster: Do not attempt to start pg_autovacuum on 8.1+ servers. * pg_createcluster: Add hook for version specific function to configure postgresql.conf. * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 7.4 clusters: - tcpip_socket = true - stats_row_level = true * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 8.0 clusters: - listen_addresses = '*' - stats_row_level = true * pg_createcluster: Add default configuration for 8.1 clusters: - listen_addresses = '*' - stats_row_level = on - autovacuum = on * PgCommon.pm, set_conf_value(): Preserve comments. * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Generalized restarting of all clusters to make it automatically work for future versions. * pg_createcluster: Adapt pg_hba.conf to the current default (md5 for host connections, ident sameuser for local ones); this obsoletes the default-pg_hba.conf patches in the server packages. * user_clusters: Update comments, throw out bogus documentation. Closes: #324749 * pg_createcluster: Only mangle configuration files (pg_hba.conf, SSL enabling, etc.) if we create a new cluster, not if we integrate an already existing one.

Closes: #318604. * Drop upgrade-scripts/all_vacuum_t1.sql since it causes too much trouble with big databases. Replace it with upgrade-scripts/all_test_t1.sql which just counts the tables in the database. This should be unintrusive, fast, and still appropriate for testing the upgrade scripts mechanism. Closes: #319035 * pg_ctlcluster: Check if autovacuum log file symlink is dangling and avoid warnings about uninitialized warnings. Instead print out a meaningful error message. Closes: #318717 * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Generate a dummy /etc/postgresql-common/root.crt if not present. Closes: #319110 * debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Remove /etc/postgresql-common/root.crt on purge. * pg_createcluster: If /etc/postgresql-common/root.crt exists, symlink root.crt from the data directory.

This can be useful to apply security updates which need to change database layouts (like for CAN-2005-1409), do checks on upgrades, and maybe other things. - Add run-upgrade-scripts and call it in the postinst. - Add /usr/share/postgresql-common/upgrade-scripts/ where scripts are stored into. - Add /usr/share/postgresql-common/upgrade-scripts/SPECIFICATION. - This checks for available databases, thus will not fail on a nonexisting template0. Closes: #312707 - Tests are run right after starting all clusters. Also, the package installation does not fail if the upgrade fails on a single cluster or database. Closes: #308685 * pg_ctlcluster: pg_ctl's -o option is not cumulative, fix postmaster argument passing. This ensures that "-c unix_socket_directory" is always passed to the postmaster. * pg_createcluster: Do not configure a cluster for SSL if the owner is not the owner of /etc/postgresql-common/postgresql.pem. This fixes cluster creation for non-postgres owners. * Add test 130_nonpostgres_clusters: Check cluster creation and operation for a cluster owned by "nobody". * Add upgrade-scripts/all_vacuum_t1.sql: Upgrade script that will just vacuum all available databases. This is pretty useful and harmless, and is a good thing to test upgrade scripts at a larger scale. * init.d-functions: Rename autovac-* to autovac_* to comply to POSIX shell identifier rules.

Closes: #312899 * Added debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Clean up on purge. * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Check whether the user postgres exists before calling adduser to avoid confusing warning messages. -- Martin Pitt Wed, 22 Jun 2005 17:33:50 +0200 postgresql-common (18) unstable; urgency=low * pg_ctlcluster: Change directory to /var/lib/postgresql to avoid error messages when doing an operation in a directory which the database owner cannot access. * pg_ctlcluster: Pass the default socket directory to the postmaster, otherwise it will always be /tmp if unix_socket_directory is not specified in postgresql.conf. Closes: #314537 * Added tests/041_server_default_socketdir: Check that the socket is created in /var/run/postgresql if unix_socket_directory is not specified. * pg_ctlcluster: - On startup, check for a stale or invalid PID file and remove it if appropriate. - On stop, bail out on an invalid PID file.

Closes: #303259 * pg_ctlcluster: Documented the autovacuum stuff in the POD. * debian/init.d-functions: Add autovacuum commands. * debian/maintscripts-functions: (Re)start/stop autovacuum daemons on configuration/removal of p-contrib-*. * pg_ctlcluster, autovacuum_start(): Check for already running daemon before starting a new one. * pg_createcluster: Add an explicit "local all" entry for the database superuser to pg_hba.conf. Closes: #303274 -- Martin Pitt Wed, 6 Apr 2005 20:59:28 +0200 postgresql-common (5) experimental; urgency=low * PgCommon.pm: Internalize get/set_conf_value, export get/set_cluster_port instead. * pg_ctlcluster: Integrated pg_autovacuum startup if -contrib is installed (based on some patches from Adam R. Skutt, thanks). * pg_createcluster: Create autovacuum_log symlink and log file. * pg_dropcluster: Remove autovacuum_log symlink and log file. * PgCommon.pm: If a configuration file is not found in the cluster conf dir, fall back to the one in /etc/postgresql-common. * Install /etc/postgresql-common/autovacuum.conf as a fallback default configuration file for pg_autovacuum. -- Martin Pitt Sun, 3 Apr 2005 09:10:27 +0200 postgresql-common (4) experimental; urgency=low * pg_upgradecluster: Uncomment library search path (artifact from debugging). * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Don't create postgres user with home /, this can lead to problems sometimes. * pg_ctlcluster: Fixed pg_ctl invocation (dangling -o argument with versions < 8.0, caused errors when using dash as /bin/sh). Closes: #300896 -- Martin Pitt Tue, 22 Mar 2005 23:32:47 +0100 postgresql-common (3) experimental; urgency=low * Add richer set of common maintainer scripts functions (for package removal, and also for client and contrib packages). * Use alternatives system to link manpages from /usr/share/postgresql//man/... to /usr/share/man. -- Martin Pitt Mon, 21 Mar 2005 00:33:22 +0100 postgresql-common (2) experimental; urgency=low * pg_wrapper: Check that specified cluster actually exists. * Fix some Perl warnings. * Added initial version of pg_upgradecluster(8). -- Martin Pitt Mon, 14 Mar 2005 17:51:22 +0100 postgresql-common (1) experimental; urgency=low * New package to provide a common infrastructure for different PostgreSQL versions. This finally fixes all bugs concerning failed automatic upgrades.
