2005-07-15Drop distinction between PKGSRC_USE_TOOLS and USE_TOOLS by makingjlam1-2/+2
PKGSRC_USE_TOOLS go away. There is now only a single USE_TOOLS variable that specifies all of the tools we need to build/run the package.

Release Notes Release 7.4.8 Release date: 2005-05-09 This release contains a variety of fixes from 7.4.7, including several security-related issues. __________________________________________________________________ Migration to version 7.4.8 A dump/restore is not required for those running 7.4.X. However, it is one possible way of handling two significant security problems that have been found in the initial contents of 7.4.X system catalogs. A dump/initdb/reload sequence using 7.4.8's initdb will automatically correct these problems. The larger security problem is that the built-in character set encoding conversion functions can be invoked from SQL commands by unprivileged users, but the functions were not designed for such use and are not secure against malicious choices of arguments. The fix involves changing the declared parameter list of these functions so that they can no longer be invoked from SQL commands. (This does not affect their normal use by the encoding conversion machinery.) The lesser problem is that the "contrib/tsearch2" module creates several functions that are misdeclared to return internal when they do not accept internal arguments. This breaks type safety for all functions using internal arguments. It is strongly recommended that all installations repair these errors, either by initdb or by following the manual repair procedures given below. The errors at least allow unprivileged database users to crash their server process, and may allow unprivileged users to gain the privileges of a database superuser. While here, fix postgresql74-client package installation on 2.0 (broken -X), and avoid the need for gtar in tcl-postgresql74.

recently discovered LOAD vulnerability.
2004-12-18Move the pg_config binary from -client to -lib. This fixes PR pkg/28685darcy2-4/+3
as well as the bulk build for py-postgresql. Note that the man page is still built and installed by -client. That's a trickier problem.
2004-10-10Update PostgreSQL 7.4 packages to 7.4.5. Changes are mostly reliability fixes.jdolecek1-2/+2
Dump/restore is not necessary for 7.4.x users. Changes in 7.4.5: * Repair possible crash during concurrent btree index insertions This patch fixes a rare case in which concurrent insertions into a btree index could result in a server panic. No permanent damage would result, but it's still worth a re-release. The bug does not exist in pre-7.4 releases. Changes in 7.4.4: * Prevent possible loss of committed transactions during crash Due to insufficient interlocking between transaction commit and checkpointing, it was possible for transactions committed just before the most recent checkpoint to be lost, in whole or in part, following a database crash and restart. This is a serious bug that has existed since PostgreSQL 7.1. * Check HAVING restriction before evaluating result list of an aggregate plan * Avoid crash when session's current userID is deleted * Fix hashed crosstab for zero-rows case (Joe) * Force cache update after renaming a column in a foreign key * Pretty-print UNION queries correctly * Make psql handle \r\n newlines properly in COPY IN * pg_dump handled ACLs with grant options incorrectly * Fix thread support for OS X and Solaris * Updated JDBC driver (build 215) with various fixes * ECPG fixes * Translation updates (various contributors)

2004-04-19Initial import of PostgreSQL 7.4.2recht4-0/+241
Client programs. PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. While PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language with an extended subset of SQL. PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available. This package contains the database client programs.
