postgresql-8.1 (8.1.8-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream bug fix release to fix regressions in 8.2.2:
- Remove overly-restrictive check for type length in constraints and
functional indexes.
- Fix optimization so MIN/MAX in subqueries can again use indexes.
* Urgency high: security relevant changes and critical bug fixes, 8.1.7-1
did not make it into testing due to the regressions in 8.1.7.

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.7-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- Fix security vulnerabilities that allowed connected users to
read backend memory.
The vulnerabilities involve suppressing the normal check that a SQL
function returns the data type it's declared to, and changing the
data type of a table column (CVE-2007-0555, CVE-2007-0556). These
errors can easily be exploited to cause a backend crash, and in
principle might be used to read database content that the user
should not be able to access.
- Fix rare bug wherein btree index page splits could fail due to
choosing an infeasible split point.
- Improve "VACUUM" performance for databases with many tables.
- Fix autovacuum to avoid leaving non-permanent transaction IDs in
non-connectable databases.
- Fix for rare Assert() crash triggered by UNION.
- Tighten security of multi-byte character processing for UTF8
sequences over three bytes long.
- Fix possible crashes when an already-in-use pl/pgsql function is
updated.
* Urgency high: security relevant changes and critical bug fixes.

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.6-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Urgency medium since this fixes some important bugs that should reach
Etch.
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Fix pg_restore to handle a tar-format backup that contains large
objects (blobs) with comments.
- Fix "failed to re-find parent key" errors in "VACUUM".
- Clean out "pg_internal.init" cache files during server restart.
This avoids a hazard that the cache files might contain stale data
after PITR recovery.
- Fix race condition for truncation of a large relation across a
gigabyte boundary by "VACUUM".
- Fix bug causing needless deadlock errors on row-level locks.
- Fix bugs affecting multi-gigabyte hash indexes.
- Fix error when constructing an ARRAY[] made up of multiple empty
elements.
- Fix ecpg memory leak during connection.
- to_number() and to_char(numeric) are now STABLE, not IMMUTABLE, for
new initdb installs. This is because lc_numeric can potentially change
the output of these functions.
- Improve index usage of regular expressions that use parentheses.
This improves psql \d performance also.
- Update timezone database to 2006p: This affects Australian and Canadian
daylight-savings rules in particular.

-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Fri, 8 Dec 2006 22:33:41 +0100
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Disallow aggregate functions in "UPDATE" commands, except within
sub-SELECTs. The behavior of such an aggregate was unpredictable, and in
8.1.X could cause a crash, so it has been disabled. The SQL standard
does not allow this either. [CVE-2006-5540]
- Fix core dump when an untyped literal is taken as ANYARRAY.
[CVE-2006-5541]
- Fix core dump in duration logging for extended query protocol when
a "COMMIT" or "ROLLBACK" is executed. [CVE-2006-5542]
- Fix mishandling of AFTER triggers when query contains a SQL
function returning multiple rows.
- Fix "ALTER TABLE ... TYPE" to recheck NOT NULL for USING clause.
- Fix string_to_array() to handle overlapping matches for the
separator string. For example, string_to_array('123xx456xxx789', 'xx').
- Fix to_timestamp() for AM/PM formats.
- Fix autovacuum's calculation that decides whether "ANALYZE" is
needed (Alvaro).
- Fix corner cases in pattern matching for psql's \d commands.
- Fix index-corrupting bugs in /contrib/ltree.
- Numerous robustness fixes in ecpg.
- Fix backslash escaping in /contrib/dbmirror.
- Minor fixes in /contrib/dblink and /contrib/tsearch2.
- Efficiency improvements in hash tables and bitmap index scans.

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-5) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/rules: Install init script at priority 19, since Apache and web
applications usually reside on priority 20, but often require a running
database. This follows a recent change in the MySQL package, thanks to
Christian Hammers for pointing this out. Closes: #379276
* Add debian/patches/12-pg_restore-ignore-failing-tables.patch:
- pg_restore: Add option -X no-data-for-failed-tables to ignore TABLE DATA
objects if the corresponding TABLE could not be created. Necessary for
fixing #351571.
-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Sun, 23 Jul 2006 10:34:55 +0200
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-4) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/rules: Use -fPIC instead of -fpic to avoid FTBFS on sparc and m68k

libpq-dev. Closes: #371158
* Add debian/patches/54-contrib-dbmirror-quoteparsing.patch: Fix parsing of
quotes escaped as '' in PendingData table. Closes: #375743
* Add debian/patches/55-contrib-admin.patch:
- Add the 'admin81' contrib module and build it. This provides
instrumentation functions for use with PgAdmin 3 and similar.
- http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/pgadmin3/release/v1.4.2/adminpacks/
- Closes: #354731
* debian/rules: Build with -fpic everywhere to improve the proactive
security effectivity of address space layout randomization. This has no
measurable performance impact on at least i386, amd64, and powerpc.
-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Fri, 7 Jul 2006 21:28:45 +0200
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* Add debian/libpq4.shlibs and bump it to >= 8.1.4, to respect the
introduction of PQescapeStringConn() and PQescapeByteaConn().
* debian/postgresql-8.1.postrm, clean_dir(): Do not use rmdir's
--ignore-fail-on-nonempty, since that still falls apart when the
directory is a mountpoint. Just ignore errors.
-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Fri, 2 Jun 2006 00:44:26 +0200
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- The server now rejects invalidly-encoded multibyte characters in all
cases to defend against SQL-injection attacks. [CVE-2006-2313]
- Reject unsafe uses of \' in string literals (for client encodings that
allow SQL injection with this, like SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, or UHC). A
new configuration parameter backslash_quote is available to adjust this
behavior when needed. [CVE-2006-2314]
- Modify libpq's string-escaping routines to be aware of encoding
considerations and standard_conforming_strings
This fixes libpq-using applications for the security issues
described in CVE-2006-2313 and CVE-2006-2314, and also
future-proofs them against the planned changeover to SQL-standard
string literal syntax. Applications that use multiple PostgreSQL
connections concurrently should migrate to PQescapeStringConn() and
PQescapeByteaConn() to ensure that escaping is done correctly for
the settings in use in each database connection. Applications that
do string escaping "by hand" should be modified to rely on library
routines instead.
- Various bug fixes, see upstream changelog for details.
* Remove debian/patches/12-krb5-multiusers.patch: Fixed upstream.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init: Add a comment to point out that environment
variables need to be set in the 'environment' file, not in the init
script.
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init, debian/postgresql-8.1.postinst: Do not fail if
init.d-functions/maintscripts-functions are not present, which happens if
postgresql-{8.1,common} are removed, but not purged. Closes: #362488
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.7.2.

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-4) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/rules:
- Put --as-needed into LDFLAGS instead of CFLAGS to avoid warnings when
building extension modules. Closes: #360759
- Fix a bashism.
* debian/control: Suggest oidentd | ident-server (oidentd prefered since it
works with IPv6). Closes: #359193
* libecpg-dev: Move manpage to /usr/share/man/man1 where it belongs to.
Closes: #360817
* debian/rules: Ship the tutorial's Makefile and ship the SQL *.source files
(not the generated *.sql files) to get the correct path to the built
libraries. Closes: #360469
* Add debian/patches/13-tutorial-README.patch: Remove confusing note about
make and point out that p-server-dev-8.1 is required for building the
tutorial.
* debian/postgresql-contrib-8.1.install, 50-contrib-oracle-enable.patch:
Move Ora2Pg.pm to /usr/share/postgresql/8.1 and adapt the library search
path in ora2pg.pl accordingly. Closes: #360818

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-3) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/postgresql-8.1.init: Use shell 'sh -e' instead of bash. * debian/postgresql-contrib-8.1.install: Ship ora2pg.pl and Ora2Pg.pm. * debian/control: Updated contrib package description. Closes: #355172 * debian/rules: Don't special-case HPPA for --enable-thread-safety-force; the current kernel seems to cope with threads quite well, so that the configure check does not hang any more. Closes: #315440 * debian/control: Build server packages on mips and mipsel again, even if they do not work. No need to block testing migration forever (the ftp-masters seem reluctant to remove the mips binaries, see #344487), and the bug is in binutils, not PostgreSQL itself (see #357603).
-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Sat, 1 Apr 2006 22:13:03 +0200
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Re-enable 'do not run as root' check from upstream:
- Move debian/patches/08-disable-root-check.patch to
debian/disable-root-check.patch.
- debian/rules: Move test suite to binary/predeb and apply
disable-root-check.patch manually right before calling the test suite.
Unapply debian/disable-root-check.patch after executing the
test suite to not break subsequent package builds.
- With this, the test suite can happily run as (fake)root during package
build without disabling the check in the actual packages.
* postgresql-doc-8.1: Ship tutorial C and SQL files.
(https://launchpad.net/bugs/30233)
* debian/control, postgresql-client-8.1: Depend on postgresql-client-common
instead of postgresql-common.

- See upstream changelog for detailled changes.
* Remove debian/patches/80-cvs-pg_restore-COPY.patch: Upstream now.
* debian/rules: Use --as-needed linker option to avoid excessive
library dependencies.
* debian/control: Remove unnecessary dependencies from PL/Python and PL/Tcl
packages.

postgresql-8.1 (8.1.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/patches/09-relax-sslkey-permscheck.patch: Do not check for any
particular group if the SSL key is group readable, to allow sharing a
common SSL certificate with other server processes.
* debian/control: Add ${shlibs:Depends} to packages which need it.
Closes: #348066
* debian/control, libecpg5: Remove obsolete Provides/Conflicts to ecpg.
* Add debian/patches/80-cvs-pg_restore-COPY.patch:
- Fix pg_restore to properly discard COPY data when trying to continue
after an error in a COPY statement. Formerly it thought the COPY data
was SQL commands, and got quite confused.
- Patch from Stephen Frost, taken from upstream CVS.
* Add debian/patches/12-krb5-multiusers.patch:
- Fix krb5 credential handling in libpq for multiple connections with
different users: Don't keep credentials in global variables, but pass
them around in a new krb5_info struct.
- Patch from Stephen Frost, proposed to be adopted upstream.
-- Martin Pitt <mpitt@debian.org> Mon, 6 Feb 2006 21:07:31 +0100
postgresql-8.1 (8.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream bugfix release:
- Fix bug introduced in 8.0 that could allow ReadBuffer to return an
already-used page as new, potentially causing loss of recently-committed
data.
- Fix for protocol-level Describe messages issued outside a
transaction or in a failed transaction.
- Fix character string comparison for locales that consider different
character combinations as equal, such as Hungarian.
This might require "REINDEX" to fix existing indexes on textual
columns.
- Set locale environment variables during postmaster startup to
ensure that plperl won't change the locale later. This fixes a problem
that occurred if the postmaster was started
with environment variables specifying a different locale than what
initdb had been told. Under these conditions, any use of plperl was
likely to lead to corrupt indexes. You may need "REINDEX" to fix
existing indexes on textual columns if this has happened to you.
(postgresql-common checks and aborts on this condition.)
- Allow more flexible relocation of installation directories.
Previous releases supported relocation only if all installation
directory paths were the same except for the last component.
This makes the test suite work with Debian's directory structure, so
that the horology test can find the timezones again and pass.
- Prevent crashes caused by the use of ISO-8859-5 and ISO-8859-9
encodings.
- Fix longstanding bug in strpos() and regular expression handling in
certain rarely used Asian multi-byte character sets.
- Fix bug where COPY CSV mode considered any \. to terminate the copy
data. The new code requires \. to appear alone on a line, as per
documentation.
- Make COPY CSV mode quote a literal data value of \. to ensure it
cannot be interpreted as the end-of-data marker.
- Various fixes for functions returning RECORDs.
- Fix processing of "postgresql.conf" so a final line with no newline
is processed properly.
- Fix bug in "/contrib/pgcrypto" gen_salt, which caused it not to use
all available salt space for MD5 and XDES algorithms. Salts for
Blowfish and standard DES are unaffected.
- Fix autovacuum crash when processing expression indexes.
- Fix "/contrib/dblink" to throw an error, rather than crashing, when
the number of columns specified is different from what's actually
returned by the query.
* Remove debian/patches/12-readline-prompt-ignore.patch: Adopted upstream.
* Bump postgresql-common dependencies to >= 39. This will ensure more
robust upgrades and other bug fixes.

* Do not build postgresql-8.1, p-contrib-8.1, and the PL/ packages on mips

nobody seems to be able to fix that.
* Add debian/patches/12-readline-prompt-ignore.patch: Do not prepend a
'\001' before the 'prompt ignore begin/end' readline commands; this is a
bash quirk, not a readline feature. Thanks to Aaron Schrab.

in initdb and postmaster to be able to run the test suite at build time.
This check is already done in pg_createcluster.
* debian/rules: Remove all the chown/setuid crack and simply call "make
check" now; print the log files if the test fails.
* debian/patches/10-testsuite-params.patch: Disable authentication in the
test suite db since ident authentication does not work with fakeroot.

postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-10) unstable; urgency=low
* debian/rules: If the test suite fails, don't let the build fail but rather
cat the log files. Once the test suite calling works reliably, the
previous behaviour can be restored.

postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-9) unstable; urgency=low
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.2.
* debian/rules: Use start-stop-daemon instead of su to call the test suite
since su requires a terminal.
* debian/rules: Disable spinlocks on mips and mipsel for now since they
FTBFS with gcc-4.0.

postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-8) unstable; urgency=low
* postgresql-client-8.0: Now suggest postgresql-8.0; clarified the
description wrt the server package (see #313247).
* Fix README.Debian symlink.
* Add debian/patches/10-testsuite-params.patch: Use /tmp as the socket
directory when running the test suite.
* debian/rules: Call the test suite when building the package. Since
creating databases as root is not permitted, do this as "nobody" if run by
root (as on the buildds); don't do it at all if run with fakeroot.

postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-7) unstable; urgency=low

check triggers a kernel bug on the buildd. (See #315440)
* debian/postgresql-8.0.init: autovac-* functions in postgresql-common were
renamed to autovac_* to comply to POSIX shell standard (see #315551).
Adaped dependencies.

postgresql-8.0 (8.0.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Prevent calling conversion functions by users. [CAN-2005-1409]
- Prevent calling tsearch2 functions by users. [CAN-2005-1410]
* debian/libpq-dev.{install,links}: Install pg_config into
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.0/bin to make it print correct paths, and install a
symlink into /usr/bin instead. Closes: #305200
* debian/rules: Change include dir configure option to
/usr/include/postgresql/8.0, so that different versions of
postgresql-server-dev-<version> do not conflict with each other. Since
applications using the libpq-dev are supposed to use pg_config, this
should not break them either.
