        * pg_ctlcluster, pg_createcluster, pg_upgradecluster: Use lchown instead
          of chown to mitigate privilege escalation via symlinks. (CVE-2017-8806.
          Related to CVE-2017-12172 in PostgreSQL; extends our earlier fix for
          CVE-2016-1255.)
        * dh_make_pgxs: Add options to set package name and version.
        * pg_lsclusters: Raise error when called on a specific cluster that does not
          exist. This was the behavior before the "accept dead postgresql.conf
          symlinks" change, but not coded explicitly.
      
      postgresql-common (187) unstable; urgency=medium
      
        * Consistently call psql -X. (Closes: #877920)
        * Update pt translation, thanks Ricardo Silva! (Closes: #872430)
        * pg_virtualenv: Drop "BUG" message that really just means that
          pg_createcluster threw an error.
        * pg_createcluster: Drop new cluster if --start was requested and starting
          fails.
        * pg_createcluster: If not running as postgres or root, don't attempt to
          install config and data parent directories with owner postgres.
        * pg_lsclusters, postgresql-generator, get_version_clusters, cluster_info,
          read_conf_file: Accept dead postgresql.conf symlinks, filesystem might not
          be mounted yet.
        * pg_virtualenv: Fix version comparison when determining newest PG major.
        * pg_updatedicts, postgresql-common.postinst: Create tsearch dictionaries on
          first install and set umask for correct permissions. (Closes: #868232)
          Thanks to Christian Ehrhardt for the analysis!
        * Demote postgresql-common hunspell/myspell triggers to noawait.
      
      postgresql-common (186) unstable; urgency=medium
      
        * Team upload.

        * Team upload.
      
        [ Christoph Berg ]
        * Revert "Error out if a recovery.conf file is found in /etc/postgresql".
          It caused too many false positives for setups where a recovery.conf
          template is located in the etc directory. (Closes: #868367)
        * Bump default PostgreSQL version to 10.
      
        [ Marco Nenciarini ]
        * supported-versions: correctly detect version 10 when using 'installed'.
      
      postgresql-common (184) unstable; urgency=high
      
        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Use deb-systemd-invoke instead of
          invoke-rc.d to stop "postgresql@$ver-*"; jessie's invoke-rc.d does not
          support service patterns.

        * PgCommon.pm: Sort get_versions and get_version_clusters output.
        * PgCommon.pm: Revert to old quote_conf_value behavior, the new regexp was
          too liberal. The new input behavior is retained, though.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Error out if a recovery.conf file is found in
          /etc/postgresql to catch a common mistake. (Closes: #853868)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Allow configuring the maintenance database.
          (Closes: #851874)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Pass config directory to pg_upgrade instead of
          symlinking the config files. This breaks using "-m upgrade" for upgrades
          *to* versions before 9.2; upgrades from older versions are unaffected.
        * pg_upgradecluster, pg_renamecluster: Use default pg_ctl timeout when
          stopping cluster.

        * createcluster.conf: Add add_include_dir='conf.d' for drop-in PostgreSQL
          config snippets in /etc/postgresql/version/cluster/conf.d/ and
          include_dir='/etc/postgresql-common/createcluster.d' for pg_createcluster
          config snippets.
        * t/051_inconsistent_encoding_upgrade.t: Remove, only relevant for <= 8.2.
        * logrotate config: Ship as static conffile again and remove ucf handling.
        * pg_conftool: Fix operation when no cluster exists yet.
        * pg_conftool: --boolean normalizes boolean variable in output; use this in
          debian/maintscripts-functions.
        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Unconditionally call invoke-rc.d, and drop
          path names from program invocations (Standards-Version 4.0.0).
        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Use 'invoke-rc.d "postgresql@$ver-*" stop'
          to prevent upgrading/removing server packages from stopping other major
          version clusters when running systemd. (Closes: #809811)
        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Avoid update-alternatives failing if the
          user removed /usr/share/man. (Closes: #866729)
        * t/TestLib.pm: Vacuum tests left behind when postmaster and pg_autovacuum
          were removed. Update test counts in *.t.
        * B-D on debhelper (>= 10.1) | dh-systemd (>= 1.19) to pick up
          dh_systemd_start.
      
      postgresql-common (182) experimental; urgency=medium
      
        * Team upload.
        * pg_buildext: Resurrect the previously deprecated "srcdir" mode to allow
          building packages from a subdirectory, and make "loop" support it as well.
        * t/001_packages.t: PostgreSQL 10 doesn't have a separate contrib package.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Use CREATE EXTENSION, createlang is being
          removed.
        * t/120_pg_upgradecluster_scripts.t: Don't try to rename

        * pgxs_debian_control.mk: Some robustifications: Write to temporary control
          file first and rename only after everything succeeds, otherwise delete it.
          Catch errors from pg_buildext and abort the build. (Closes: #646702)
        * pg_buildext, pg_buildext.pod: If second parameter (srcdir) is not
          specified, assume the current directory. (Closes: #646712, part 1)
        * pgxs_debian_control.mk: Drop $(SRCDIR) requirement so that this doesn't
          need to be set separately. Just use $(CURDIR). (Closes: #646712, part 2)
      
      postgresql-common (127) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * debian/backport-ppa: Add oneiric.
        * logrotate 3.8 landed in unstable, rebuild against this to get a proper

          #640493)
        * debian/rules: Fix logrotate dependency generation logic to only consider

        * Add debian/tests/{control,system}: DEP-8/autopkgtest control files for
          running the integration tests.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Set stdin for forked psql process, so that the
          test suite run does not need a defined stdin.

      postgresql-common (125) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Add debian/backport-ppa: Script to generate and upload backport packages
          to my Ubuntu PPA. Only for personal use.
        * Add t/160_alternate_confroot.t: Test creation, operation, upgrading, and
          removal of clusters as user nobody using $PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT. This
          reproduces LP#835630 and other bugs.
        * PgCommon.pm: If $PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT is set, untaint it.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Don't hardcode /etc/postgresql/, use
          $PgCommon::confroot to respect $PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT. (LP: #835630)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Add --logfile option to specify a custom log file for
          the upgraded cluster. Necessary if you want to run this on
          per-user clusters and can't write into /var/log/postgresql/.
        * pg_ctlcluster: When starting as root for >= 9.1, adjust the OOM killer
          protection to -16, so that the postmaster does not get OOM-killed so
          easily (as it appears to claim all the shared memory). 9.1.1-3 and later
          resets oomadj of child processes to 0, so that the client backends can
          still get OOM-killed. Add tests to t/020_create_sql_remove.t.
          (LP: #854590)
        * debian/control: Add Breaks: to postgresql-9.1 versios before 9.1.1-3, as
          they do not reset oomadj for child processes. This is a precaution to
          avoid running all the client backends with -16 as well.
        * Add t/170_extensions.t: Check that all shipped extensions install and
          remove.
        * Add t/180_ecpg.t: Check that ecpg works. In t/001_packages.t, check that
          libecpg-dev is installed.

        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_info(): Use /bin/ps instead of reading /proc/*/comm,
          the latter was reported to not work on some systems.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Use PgCommon::check_pidfile_running and drop duplicated
          code.
        * pg_wrapper: The previous multiarch globbing was wrong, as it looked for
          the architecture in uname() (which doesn't work on i386, where uname says
          i686). Now get the multiarch library path from whereever psql expects
          libedit.so to be, so that this even works if you install postgresql-client
          for a foreign architecture.

        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that the "plpython3u" language works.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: More thoroughly check PL/Perl and PL/PerlU.
        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_info(): If we have a PID file and can read it (i. e.
          as root), prefer doing this over probing the port. This delivers the
          correct result with e. g. "pg_ctlcluster restart" when the port got
          changed in the configuration file. (Closes: #643850)
        * pg_wrapper: Drop dpkg-architecture call; we don't want to introduce a
          dependency to dpkg-dev, and DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH also isn't available in
          backports. Just extend the libreadline.so globbing to cover multiarch
          paths as well. (Closes: #644078)
        * t/070_non_postgres_clusters.t: Test pg_upgradecluster. This reproduces
          #644477.

          pg_buildext tool needs it.
        * pg_wrapper: Find libreadline in multiarch directory, too.
          (Closes: #640520)
        * debian/rules: logrotate 3.8.0 requires specifying the "su" option, which
          is not backportable. Dynamically check the available logrotate version,
          and add it if it is >= 3.8. Also dynamically generate a dependency or
          breaks to logrorate 3.8+. (Closes: #640493)

        * pg_upgradecluster: Print message for running the upgrade.d scripts, thanks
          Karsten Hilbert.
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Add test case for a database with read only default
          transactions. Reproduces #599085.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Set superuser configuration value of
          'default_transaction_read_only' to 'off' during the upgrade, so that
          upgrading databases with read only default transactions actually works.
          Thanks Karsten Hilbert for the suggestion. (Closes: #599085)
        * t/040_upgrade.t, pg_upgradecluster: Consistently use upper case for SQL

        * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.2, no changes necessary.
        * debian/rules: Call dh_installinit with -r to avoid restarting on upgrade.
          (Closes: #639140)
        * debian/control: Wrap dependencies.
        * debian/control, debian/rules: Convert from cdbs to dh, and bump
          Standards-Version to 7.
        * debian/control, debian/rules: Build the versionless metapackages from this
          source instead of the current postgresql-X.Y source. This behaves better
          with backports. Thanks to Christoph Berg for the suggestion.
        * debian/postgresql-common.lintian-overrides: Don't complain about missing
          manpage for pg_config, it's shipped by libpq-dev.
        * debian/control: Update description of the metapackages to actually say
          "metapackage" to quiesce lintian.
        * Split POD of pg_buildext into pg_buildext.pod, and update debian/rules to
          build the manpage from there. Fixes lintian "shell syntax failure"
          error.

          version 119.
        * debian/supported-versions: Switch to 9.1 as default and testing/unstable
          supported version. This will also cause -server-dev-all to only pull in
          -9.1.
        * PgCommon.pm: Partially revert changes for #606336: postmaster does not
          clean up the PID file when it stops, and it is not world readable, so only
          its absence is a definitive result. If the PID file is present, do the
          port probe to check if it is really running.

        * pg_upgradecluster: Only call pg_ctl with the -t option with old clusters
          >= 8.4, as earlier versions do not yet support it. (Closes: #633801)
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Remove some obsolete transition
          logic.

          independent for *.conf files, as per upstream specification. Add
          appropriate test cases to t/005_PgCommon.t. (Closes: #618577)
        * PgCommon.pm: Make {read,set,disable,replace}_conf_value() accept "key
          value" lines without '=', as this is optional as per upstream

          to Frederic Junod for the original patch suggestion. (Closes: #618583)
        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_info(): If postgresql.conf defines an external PID
          file, check its existence for determining if a cluster is running, instead
          of poking the port. This is more efficient, and also gives correct results
          for overlapping port numbers. Based on a patch from Jens Wilke, thanks!

        * Add pg_config wrapper: If postgresql-server-dev-* is installed, this calls
          pg_config from the latest available one. Otherwise this falls back to
          libpq-dev's version. This should fix a common confusion for people who
          want to build e. g. 9.0 server-side extensions with a newer (like 9.1
          beta) libpq-dev installed. In debian/postgresql-common.{preinst,postrm}:

          the "probin" fixup for cluster upgrades from versions < 9.0. Earlier
          versions' replace() function indeed does work on bytea types, not strings,
          so this broke upgrades to 8.4. (Closes: #627227)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Drop all unversioned configuration option transitions,
          which were still from the 7.4 → 8.0 days. These are obsolete, and
          versions >= 96 only support clusters >= 8.1 anyway. In some cases they

        * pg_createcluster: Be more careful with cleaning up the created cluster if
          an error occurs: Do not start the cleanup until we actually passed our

          erroneously remove an already existing cluster on a sanity check fail, if
          that cluster happened to not be running at the time. (Closes: #597097)

        * debian/rules: Put init script priority back to S19/K21 to match the
          previous postgresql-8.4 init script. Fix the priorities on upgrade in
          debian/postgresql-common.preinst. (Closes: #597654)

        * t/080_start.conf.t: Update for common init.d script.
        * debian/rules: Drop installation of lintian overrides and let dh_lintian do
          it for us. Adapt override file accordingly.
        * debian/control: Drop unnecessary debconf dependency from -client-common.
        * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.1, no changes necessary.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postgresql.init: Fix force-reload, thanks Pascal
          Volk. (Closes: #591185)
        * debian/rules: Stop man page build/clean being package dependent.
        * pg_buildext: Remove bashishms and convert to plain /bin/sh.

        * Add new package postgresql-server-dev-all:
          - "pg_buildext" tool for easy building of extension packages for multiple
            server versions.
          - pgxs_debian_control.mk debian/rules include for generating
            debian/control.

        * pg_lsclusters: Fix "uninitialized value" warning when a cluster's data
          directory is not set. This is a rather fatal problem anyway, but we can
          present it in a nicer way. Thanks Christoph Berg! (Closes: #589014)
        * Migrate to a common init script for all server versions, to avoid
          providing the "postgresql" service in multiple packages (which causes
          insserv to complain bitterly):
          - debian/init.d-functions: Add function get_versions() which returns all
            installed versions, but filters out the ones which have their own init
            script. With that, we can run newer common versions with older server
            packages.
          - debian/maintscripts-functions: Add function stop_version() (to be called
            from "prerm upgrade"), and start cluster in configure_version() if there
            is no version specific init script.
          - Add debian/postgresql-common.postgresql.init: Common init script for all
            installed server versions.
          - debian/rules: Install common init script.

          Debian/Ubuntu versions to support backports.
        * debian/README.Debian: Talk about 8.3 and 8.4, since those are the versions
          relevant to squeeze installs and upgrades.
        * pg_upgradecluster POD: Describe allowed characters in upgrade script file
          names.

        [ Peter Eisentraut ]
        * Add initial support for 9.0 (pre-release snapshots for now):
          - cleanpg: Remove 9.0 clusters.
          - pg_createcluster: Clone configure_8_4() as configure_9_0().
          - pg_upgradecluster: Migrate obsolete/changed configuration parameters.
        * pg_wrapper: Fix spelling.
        * In maintainer scripts, instead of "#!/bin/sh -e" use a separate "set -e",
          per lintian.
        * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4; no changes necessary.
      
        [ Martin Pitt ]
        * cleanpg: Do not remove the /var/log/postgresql/ directory itself, only its
          contents, to avoid logcheck falling over.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Do not consider $PG_GRANDPARENT_PID an unsafe
          environment, it's set by 9.0 servers.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Add a full configuration for 8.4, so that
          upgrades to 9.0 can be tested.
        * t/052_upgrade_encodings.t: Specify 'C' locale when creating the ASCII
          encoded test database for versions >= 8.4, otherwise we have a
          locale/encoding mismatch.
        * t/TestLib.pm: Abort tests on FAILURE=shell and the shell exits with
          nonzero. This avoids endless followup error shells once it's clear that
          the following ones are doomed anyway.
        * PgCommon.pm: Add new function get_db_locales() which reads lc_ctype and
          lc_locales for a particular database. This replaces the
          get_cluster_locales() function for >= 8.4 server versions (which moved
          from global to per-database locales).
        * pg_upgradecluster: Use get_db_locales() instead of get_cluster_locales()
          for upgrades from >= 8.4.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Drop check for valid locales. We can only determine them
          (using pg_controldata through get_cluster_locales()) for <= 8.3 clusters,
          which are obsolete in sid/lenny. For >= 8.4 clusters, we need to start the
          server to find out the locales, at which point the check is pointless.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Run pg_restore with --disable-triggers when running in
          --data-only mode. (Closes: #579768)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: We now assume that /var/log/postgresql/ always
          exists, and is writable by the "postgres" user. Thus if we delete the log,
          running "pg_ctlcluster start" should be able to recreate it. This fixes
          the 020_create_sql_remove.t test failure in "umask 077" mode, and uncovers
          some more inconsistencies wrt. log directory permissions.
        * pg_createcluster, testsuite: Fix permissions of /var/log/postgresql/ if
          this script creates it.
      
      postgresql-common (106) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * t/001_packages.t: Check for ".utf8" locale instead of ".UTF-8". This
          seems to be the new canonical spelling now.
        * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Require that /var/log/postgresql/ still
          exists. If we remove it entirely, current versions of logcheck complain
          loudly. This was already fixed a while ago in squeeze, this will ensure it
          stays so. (Closes: #576180)
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Check upgrade of database and table ACL, an ALTER
          DATABASE option, and correct upgrading of a custom pg_hba.conf. This
          reproduces #543506.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Rework logic to use "pg_dumpall -s" instead of
          "pg_dumpall -g", to also catch ACLs, global settings, and the like. Drop
          manual database creation and encoding special-cases, since those are being
          taken care of by the -s commands already. (Closes: #543506, #562676)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Re-enable connections after the upgrade is done, not in
          between.
        * t/120_pg_upgradecluster_scripts.t: Upgrade scripts should not create
          tables in the "init" phase, since they will be overwritten during
          dump/restore. Change the test case to move table changes into the "finish"
          phase, and update documentation in pg_upgradecluster to point out this
          potential problem.
        * debian/init.d-functions, status(): More appropriate output formatting for
          "status" init script commands. (Closes: #522679)

        * debian/copyright: Update to DEP-5 (Machine-readable debian/copyright), and
          drop Oliver's copyright, since there is nothing left that was written by
          him.
        * pg_updatedicts: Do not create system_<locale>.{affix,dict} symlinks any
          more, but use the actual names that upstream PostgreSQL looks for (without
          system_ prefix). This allows us to drop the system_ lookup patch from
          PostgreSQL. Update t/150_tsearch_stemming.t accordingly and remove the old
          system_* symlinks on upgrade in debian/postgresql-common.postinst.

        * Drop Oliver from Uploaders:, he has not been active any more for years.
        * t/005_PgCommon.t: Add '.' to library search path, so that this prefers
          testing PgCommon.pm from the source tree.
        * t/005_PgCommon.t: Add test cases for {set,disable,replace}_conf_value().
        * PgCommon.pm, replace_conf_value(): Do not append the new parameter if the
          old is not found.
        * PgCommon.pm, {set,disable,replace}_conf_value(): Intercept errors on
          writing data (which could happen when running out of disk space). Write
          into a new file and rename it in the end, instead of directly writing into
          the original file. Thanks to Yann Dirson for the original patch.
          (Closes: #549206)
        * pg_createcluster: Change effective gid as well when setting the socket
          directory, to avoid moving postgresql.conf's group to root (which would
          happen with the previous change).
        * Add t/042_upgrade_tablespaces.t: Test upgrading a cluster with
          tablespaces. Since this is not currently supported (and hard to do in an
          automated fashion due to the nature of tablespaces), just check that this
          errors out with a sane message and does not do any damage.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Add an early check for tablespaces. (Closes: #523574)
        * pg_lsclusters: Fix undefined value if owneruid cannot be determined (which
          can happen in special setups). Thanks to Daniel Pittman! (Closes: #541434)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Verify permissions of the data and
          configuration directories.
        * pg_createcluster: Make /etc/postgresql/<version> and
          /var/lib/postgresql/<version> owned by 'postgres', so that they can be
          administrated with 'postgres' privileges. Update t/030_errors.t
          accordingly. (LP: #236704, Closes: #525294)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that a missing log file is recreated by
          pg_ctlcluster (if it has enough permissions).

        * pg_upgradecluster: Do not try to migrate "stats_*" settings to
          "track_counts" again if track_counts is already set. This led to disabling
          autovacuum on a 8.3 → 8.4 migration. (Closes: #540351)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Fix owner of pg_hba.conf after upgrade, to also work in
          tight umask settings.
        * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3; no changes necessary.
        * debian/control: Re-promote ssl-cert to Depends:. Dropping to recommends

        * PgCommon.pm, read_conf_file(): Correctly handle includes.
          (Closes: #535428)
        * PgCommon.pm: Check environment variable $PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT for an
          alternative configuration root (default: /etc/postgresql/). For
          testing/development purposes you can change this to point to e. g. your
          home directory, so that you can use the postgresql-common tools without
          root privileges. Thanks to Aidan Van Dyk for the suggestion and patch!
        * pg_createcluster: If calling as non-root user, default to effective user
          id for owneruid instead of root. This makes using $PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT
          more convenient.
        * pg_wrapper: Document PG_CLUSTER_CONF_ROOT in the POD.

        * Add support for 8.4 (pre-release snapshots for now):
          - debian/supported-versions: Support 8.4 everywhere (for backports).
          - cleanpg: Remove 8.4 clusters.
          - pg_createcluster: Clone configure_8_3() as configure_8_4().
          - t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Add complete set of 8.3 configuration
            options, to test configuration migration to 8.4.
          - PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_locales(): Bail out if calling on 8.4 or later
            cluster (where locales are not associated to clusters any more).
            PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_databases(): Ignore lines from psql -Atl which
            just describe access permissions.
          - pg_ctlcluster: Only do locales check for <= 8.3 for now.
          - "ident sameuser" does not exist any more in 8.4, just use "ident" from
            8.4 on.
          - pg_createcluster: Do not symlink root.crt if
            /etc/postgresql-common/root.crt does not have actual certificates (just
            the help text), since 8.4 gets royally confused about the dummy one.
          - pg_upgradecluster: Migrate obsolete/changed configuration parameters.
          - t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Fix parsing of psql -Atl output for new 8.4
            format.
          - t/030_errors.t: 8.4 now fails on invalid pg_hba.conf, update
            accordingly.
          - t/050_encodings.t: Stop using pg_controldata for checking cluster
            encoding. Just check psql -Atl.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Don't call createdb/dropdb with -q; it got dropped in
          8.4 and is not necessary any more with 8.3 either.
        * t/010_defaultport_cluster.t: Ensure that we run the test with
          LC_MESSAGES=C, so that it succeeds in non-English locales, too.
        * t/051_inconsistent_encoding_upgrade.t: Disable if the oldest available
          cluster is 8.3 or newer; the test is not relevant there, and will fail.
      
      postgresql-common (97) unstable; urgency=low

          This isn't shipped in the package, just kept in the source as a developer
          tool.
        * debian/control: Update section to "database".
        * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.1 (no changes required).

        * t/001_packages.t: Check that postgres user is in the ssl-cert group.
          Thanks to Cyril Bouthors for the patch!
        * Added support for passing additional options to pg_ctl through a new

          -p/--port/$PGPORT selects the right cluster in the case of multiple
          existing clusters where none runs on the default port. This reproduces
          #517527.
        * pg_wrapper: Default to latest version if -p, --port, or $PGPORT is

        * debian/README.Debian: Fix "confident" typo. (Closes: #512648)
        * Drop pg_autovacuum handling, which was only necessary for 7.4 (8.0
          and above have internal autovacuuming). This was kept for Lenny to
          allow Etch backports. This also gets rid of pg_maintenance and
          /etc/cron.d/postgresql-common. (Closes: #425914, #481025)
        * Add debian/postgresql-common.preinst: Remove obsolete conffiles

        * Drop support for pre-8.1 clusters, together with all hacks and
          workarounds for those. Add Conflicts: to postgresql-{7.4,8.0}, to
          ensure that this version isn't used with ancient servers any more.
        * t/030_errors.t: Check that clusters on the same port can run side
          by side if they are using different Unix socket directories and
          different TCP addresses. This reproduces #514132.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Replace overly harsh port conflict check (which
          broke clusters on the same port, but different Unix/TCP
          namespaces) with a more modest one which just checks conflict on
          the same Unix socket directory. Thanks to Bernd Helmle for the

        * pg_updatedicts: Ensure generated tsearch dictionaries are world
          readable when being generated under umask 077.
        * debian/README.Debian: Point out incompatibility between using the

        * Add automatic building of PostgreSQL tsearch/stem dictionaries:
          - Add pg_updatedicts: Build dictionaries and affix files from installed
            hunspell/myspell dictionary packages.
          - Add t/150_tsearch_stemming.t: Test cases for pg_updatedicts, tsearch
            functionality, and word stem handling.
          - t/001_packages.t: Ensure that hunspell-en-us is installed, above new
            test relies on it.
          - debian/postgresql-common.install: Install pg_updatedicts.
          - debian/rules: Create man page from pg_udpatedicts POD.
          - Add debian/postgresql-common.triggers: Register interest on
            /usr/share/myspell/dicts.
          - debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Call pg_updatedicts on upgrade to
            this version, fresh install, and our trigger.
          - debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Remove /var/cache/postgresql on purge.

        * t/070_non_postgres_clusters.t: Test that all cluster configuration files
          are owned by the cluster superuser. Reproduces #481349.
        * pg_createcluster: Make the cluster configuration directory, "start.conf",
          and "environment" owned by the cluster superuser instead of root.
          (Closes: #481349)
        * t/030_errors.t: Check behaviour of starting of clusters with colliding
          ports. Reproduces #472627.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Error out with a port collision message if another cluster
          is already running on the port. (Closes: #472627)
        * t/090_multicluster.t: Don't reconfigure cluster on conflicting port, since
          that now fails with above fix.
      
      postgresql-common (93) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Test a direct upgrade from oldest to newest
          version in addition to consecutive version-by-version upgrades. This
          checks that parameters which changed several times between the versions
          are correctly converted. Reproduces #502106.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Re-read configuration file after doing the "syslog" ->
          "redirect_stderr" migration, so that the followup "redirect_stderr" ->
          "logging_collector" rename will actually be done. This fixes a direct 7.4
          -> 8.3 upgrade. (Closes: #502106)
      
      postgresql-common (92) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * debian/supported-versions: Add Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04.

          Thanks to Toni Mueller for noticing.
        * Demote ssl-cert Depends: to Recommends:. (Closes: #498406)
        * pg_upgradecluster: Provide --locale and -lc-* options similar to
          pg_createcluster, to provide easy UTF-8 migration from previous
          legacy-encoded clusters. (Closes: #505785)
        * t/052_upgrade_encodings.t: Test cases for pg_upgradecluster default and
          explicit encoding behaviour.
        * debian/init.d-functions: Use --force for forcefully stopping a running
          cluster for "restart" init.d operation as well. Otherwise restart is not
          guaranteed to succeed and could hang on existing connections.
          (Closes: #481359)
        * t/052_upgrade_encodings.t: Test upgrading of an SQL_ASCII database in a
          cluter running under a proper locale. This reproduces #505449.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Preserve SQL_ASCII encoded databases on upgrade.

        * PgCommon.pm, change_ugid(): Use /usr/bin/id instead of manual parsing with
          getgrent(), which is reportedly magnitudes faster for environments with
          a large number of groups in remote databases. Thanks to Rodrigo Gallardo!
          (Closes: #491136)
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Update root.crt header comment for
          PostgreSQL 8.3. (Closes: #491276)
        * pg_ctlcluster: Fix typo in pg_ctl error messages. Thanks to Aaron Schrab!
          (Closes: #488280)
        * pg_createcluster, pg_ctlcluster: Set the log file group to "adm" if
          the cluster is owned by a system user (like "postgres"). In the "owned by
          human user" case, keep it as that user's primary group. Check both cases in
          the test suite. (Closes: #483017)
        * t/TestLib.pm: Return "1" at the end, to avoid "TestLib.pm did not return a
          true value" error on import.
        * PgCommon.pm, read_conf_file(): Fix parsing of escaped quotes in string
          values. Add tests to t/005_PgCommon.t. (Closes: #481055)

      postgresql-common (88) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * t/030_errors.t: Add various test cases for stopping stopped clusters with
          stale or corrupt PID files, with and without --force. This reproduces
          #473879.
        * pg_ctlcluster: On stop, clean up stale/corrupt PID files if the server is
          not running. Also fix a taint error and simplify the code a bit.
          (Closes: #473879)
        * t/030_errors.t: Test graceful handling of absent /var/lib/postgresql.
          (Reproduces LP #210322). Adapt 020_create_sql_remove.t accordingly.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check early whether the data directory exists and is
          accessible, to avoid lots of Perl warning clutter. (LP: #210322)
        * pg_createcluster POD: Clarify what "integrating existing cluster data
          directory" means: configuration files must already be present, we cannot
          create them out of thin air. (Closes: #475954)
        * pg_maintenance: Sort versions for predictable output (looks nicer and
          unbreaks the test suite).
      
      postgresql-common (87) unstable; urgency=medium
      
        * Urgency medium since #472930 is an important bug fix.
        * debian/init.d-functions: If there are no clusters, exit with 4 (LSB-code
          for "unknown status") instead of 0 (which means "service is running", but
          it is debatable and confusing whether all clusters are running if there
          are none at all). (LP: #203966)
        * Update Spanish debconf translations, thanks Javier Fernández-Sanguino
          Peña. (Closes: #473405)
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Run upgrades under
          default_transaction_read_only=on. t/040_upgrade.t still uses the default
          "off", so both cases get tested. This replicates the problem report from
          Karsten Hilbert.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Work with default_transaction_read_only=on.
        * debian/autovacuum.conf, architecture.html: Point out that this file is
          only relevant for PostgreSQL versions earlier than 8.1. Thanks to Ross
          Boylan for pointing this out.
        * Add t/051_inconsistent_encoding_upgrade.t: Check that upgrades from
          pre-8.3 to 8.3 succeed and have correct encodings if the old DB had a
          database whose encoding did not match the server locale. This reproduces
          #472930.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Fix handling of database encodings on upgrade, since
          8.3 now forces DB encodings and server locale to match:
          - With C locale, keep encoding of DBs on upgrade, just as in previous
            versions. (C is compatible with all encodings, and causes lots of string
            functions not to work correctly, but people still use it deliberately.)
          - With other  locales, create the target DB manually with a compatible
            encoding, and call pg_restore in a way to not create the target DB and
            automatically convert encoding.
          - Closes: #472930, LP: #207779

          (Closes: #463070)
        * t/030_errors.t, t/130_nonroot_admin.t: Check pg_dropcluster/
          pg_createcluster error message when being called with insufficient
          privileges.
        * pg_createcluster, pg_dropcluster: Point out that program needs to be run
          as root when creating/removing config or data directory fails.
          (Closes: #460576)
        * t/090_multicluster.t: Remove test case for nonexisting PGSERVICE value,
          since this is not reliably reported in psql.
        * t/140_pg_config.t: Skip pg_config test for 8.1. It's known broken in Etch
          (pg_config was only shipped in libpq-def) and irrelevant in Lenny.
      
      postgresql-common (83) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Drop the "If you have openssl installed..." from the package description,

        * t/050_encodings.t: Add alternative unicode representation 0xc827 for the
          CVE-2006-2313 test, so that the testsuite runs cleanly in Ubuntu 6.06.
        * debian/supported-versions: Drop 8.1 from fallback set of supported
          versions.
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Add check for forcing the obsoletion
          notifications when upgrading over a particular version. This provides the
          notification when upgrading from Etch to Lenny, and when obsoleting a
          major version within unstable.
        * debian/supported-versions: Drop support for 8.2 in unstable, 8.3 is the
          version du jour.
        * debian/supported-versions: Drop Ubuntu 5.10, fix a typo in the versions
          for Ubuntu 6.06.

        * debian/control: Fix 'commmon' typo. (Closes: #449532)

          not regarded as a cluster directory. This reproduces #450565.
        * PgCommon.pm, get_versions()/get_version_clusters(): Filter out '.' and
          '..' from readdir() output. (Closes: #450565)
        * pg_ctlcluster: Use "smart" mode shutdown by default, and add option
          -f/--force to use "fast" -> "immediate" -> kill -9 approach. (LP: #154012)
        * debian/init.d-functions: Use --force when stopping all clusters, since
          default smart mode can potentially block forever and thus fail to shut
          down a machine.

        * pg_upgradecluster: Fix locale error checking.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Use cluster_exists() instead of
          cluster_data_directory().
        * PgCommon.pm: Fix cluster_data_directory() to consider the data_directory
          setting in postgresql.conf, which should trump the /pgdata symbolic link.
        * debian/init.d-functions: Check for 'postgresql.conf' instead of 'pgdata'
          in the test for a valid cluster configuration directory, since 'pgdata' is
          optional now.
        * pg_createcluster: Do not create pgdata symlinks to the data directory in
          /etc any more when configuring a >= 8.0 cluster. Use the data_directory
          configuration option instead. (Part of #444689)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that clusters still work when replacing
          the data_directory setting with a pgdata symbolic link, and that
          the data_directory setting trumps the symlink.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Set correct data_directory config option after copying
          over the old configuration files.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Restore data_directory setting after
          scribbling over the configuration file with our template.
        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_info(): Only return a value for 'logfile' when it is
          not explicitly configured with log_directory and/or log_filename. The
          previous guessing was wrong anyway, since PostgreSQL always appends a
          pretty unpredictable timestamp.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Only do log file checks and pass pg_ctl -l option when the
          log file default is used. Otherwise let PostgreSQL do its logfile handling
          and waive log file checks, since we don't know which file is used.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Redirect pg_ctl's stdout and stderr to /dev/null, otherwise
          it will hang forever when using a custom log file (and thus not passing
          -l).
        * pg_lsclusters: Print "custom" as log file location if a custom one was set
          in postgresql.conf.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Enable 'redirect_stderr' in the 7.4 -> 8.x migration of
          'syslog' -> 'log_destination', so that the log output is actually
          complete.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Enable 'redirect_stderr' in the template
          postgresql.conf's, so that we actually capture log output.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check proper handling of logs when configuring
          log file in postgresql.conf, using the log symlink, or having neither.
        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_info(): Return default log file in 'logfile' if
          neither postgresql.conf nor a 'log' symlink explicitly specify a log file.
        * pg_createcluster: Do not create log symlink if using the default log file
          (i. e. when not using -l). (Closes: #444689)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Verify that log symlink is not created by
          default.
        * architecture.html: Update to current reality.
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Do not consider versions as obsolete if
          they are newer than the latest officially supported version. This avoids
          confusion when testing new betas in experimental or using backports.
          (Closes: #446635)
        * t/TestLib.pm: Make exec_as() work with user name 'root' (not just uid 0).
        * Add t/130_nonroot_admin.t: Check that administrative pg_ tools work as
          non-root, too, if the invoker has sufficient permissions on the
          directories (test case for LP #90036).
        * pg_{create,drop,upgrade}cluster: Small tweaks to make the scripts work for
          non-root users with sufficient write permissions to
          /etc/postgresql/<version>, /var/lib/postgresql/<version>, and
          /var/log/postgresql. (LP: #90036)

          given, reflect that in the avac_enable return value.
        * t/050_encodings.t: 8.3 onwards refuses to create a cluster with an
          inconsistent locale/encoding combination. Just drop the test case, it does
          not make too much sense anyway.
        * t/090_multicluster.t: Do not rely on output of createdb, call it with -q.
          8.3 behaves differently here.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Add full set of 8.2 postgresql.conf options
          for testing upgrades to 8.3.
        * pg_upgradecluster: When upgrading to 8.3, transition changed configuration
          options:
          - bgwriter_lru_percent, bgwriter_all_percent, bgwriter_all_maxpages,
            stats_start_collector, and stats_reset_on_server_start: deprecated.
          - redirect_stderr -> logging_collector
          - stats_command_string -> track_activities

        * pg_dropcluster: Remove rotated logs, too. (part of #431643)
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Clean up /usr/lib/postgresql/dumpall/
          junk from the Sarge->Etch postgresql transition. This needs to be kept
          until after Lenny's release. (part of #431643)

          /var/lib/postgresql/.psql_history on purge. Closes: #431643
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Create /var/lib/postgresql/ if it does
          not exist. This should not usually happen, but apparently did anyway.

      postgresql-common (76) unstable; urgency=medium
      
        * Priority medium since this unbreaks client programs like psql in testing.
        * pg_wrapper: Revert changes of version 74 to make this work with taint
          mode. It breaks too many custom setups, and Perl just doesn't allow to
          untaint $PATH bluntly. If you run pg_wrapper from a perl script with taint
          checks enabled, you have to clean $PATH yourself. Closes: #427894
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Check that PL/TCL and PL/TCLu work, so that we
          now have complete test coverage of all four PLs that are shipped with the
          core package.
        * t/001_packages.t: Check that postgresql-pltcl-<version> is installed.

        The "Never run the test suite without 7.4 just because it is deprecated and

        * pg_ctlcluster: Partially revert PATH cleansing to make pg_ctl work on 7.4
          again. This can be dropped again once 7.4 is actually removed from the

            versions. Closes: #420915
          - Add Lenny/unstable: only support 8.2.
          - Add Ubuntu 7.10.
          - Don't fail if the distribution cannot be determined at all, only print
            out a warning.
        * pg_createcluster, pg_ctlcluster, pg_dropcluster, pg_maintenance,
          pg_upgradecluster: Strip down PATH untainting to the absolute minimum, to
          not fall over if e. g. /usr/local/bin is misconfigured to be world
          writable. Closes: #420565
        * pg_wrapper: Make this script work with taint checks enabled. This happens
          in a pretty blunt way, since it does not actually make sense to enforce
          environment variables, etc. It should just not fail when being called from
          a -T perl script. Closes: #422129
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Do not hide failures of the init
          script on restart.
        * debian/postgresql-common.config, debian/postgresql-common.templates:
          Remove the check for an untransitioned postgresql, since it was only
          necessary for the Sarge->Etch upgrade. Update debian/po/*.po.
        * Remove debian/postgresql-common.preinst, we only needed it for the
          "untransitioned" test.
        * debian/control: Move cdbs and debhelper from B-D-I to B-D, since we need
          them for 'clean'.
        * Add debian/postgresql-client-common.lintian: Lintian overrides for 'binary
          without manpage'. The stuff in /usr/bin is just a symlink to pg_wrapper,
          postgresql-client-* ships the actual manpages for those.

          dynamically causes various upgrade failures. Closes: #416146, #416228
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Call adduser with --no-create-home.
          This avoids the 'wrong owner' warning as well.

          Closes: #414067
        * postgresql-common/debian/postgresql-common.dirs: Remove
          /var/lib/postgresql, so that adduser does not complain about a preexisting
          directory with the wrong owner any more. This also avoids removing the
          home directory of postgres when removing the package. Closes: #415444

          This reproduces bug #403239.
        * pg_createcluster: If $LC_ALL is defined, fix $LANG to $LC_ALL. Servers
          prior to 8.2 get this wrong and fail over an invalid $LANG even if that is
          dominated by a valid $LC_ALL. Closes: #403239
        * Add Brazilian Portugese debconf translations. Thanks to André Luís Lopes!
          Closes: #403563
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Check that pg_upgradecluster does not have any stderr
          output (such as error messages from pg_restore, the server, or Perl
          warnings). This uncovers #403529.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Do not mangle {hba,ident,external_pid}_file values from
          old postgresql.conf if they do not exist at all. This removes the Perl
          warnings during upgrades from 7.4. Closes: #403529
        * debian/README.Debian: Describe default cluster setup and give an example
          for upgrading a cluster if a newer version with the same name already

        * Urgency medium, only safe fixes and this needs to go into Etch due to
          first bug fix.
        * debian/supported_versions: Gracefully fall back on an unknown
          distribution, instead of failing package installation completely.
          Closes: #400628
        * debian/supported_versions: Some minor factorization.
        * Add Spanish debconf translations, thanks to Javier Fernández-Sanguino
          Peña! Closes: #402198
        * pg_createcluster: Add --locale and the various --lc_* options that initdb
          supports, and mention in POD that directly setting --encoding is not
          recommended. Closes: #395083
        * t/050_encodings.t: Use pg_createcluster's new --locale option in some test
          cases.
        * Make testsuite work with just one installed major version (mainly boils
          down to disabling upgrade tests).

        * debian/supported-versions: Add Debian 4.0. Closes: #399978

          postgres to ssl-cert. Closes: #399979
        * pg_createcluster: Enable timestamps in log files by default. Other system
          log files have timestamps, too, and they are useful. Closes: #395554
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Fix number of tests if oldest installed PostgreSQL
          version is < 8.0.
      
      postgresql-common (67) unstable; urgency=low
      
        *t/040_upgrade.t: Skip the user/group name clash test when there are only
         servers >= 8.1 installed, since it does not apply to them and breaks the
         test suite.
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Check that the upgraded cluster still works after
          removing the old one, to check for stale paths of configuration files.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Adapt path to configuration files in the target
          cluster, so that they do not refer to the files of the old cluster. (This
          fixes an upgrade regression introduced in version 62).
        * debian/supported-versions: Add Ubuntu 7.04.
        * Add Italian debconf translations. Thanks to Luca Monducci

        * pg_upgradecluster: Quiesce dropdb for already existing 'postgres'
          database.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Avoid harmless, but confusing error messages about role
          creation:
          - Do not use -c for pg_dumpall, since the target roles should not yet
            exist anyway.
          - Filter out the 'CREATE (ROLE|USER)' command for the db superuser, since
            it will already exist.
          - Testsuite: Check that pg_upgradecluster output contains no server error
            messages.
          - Closes: #389930
      
      postgresql-common (64) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Fix pg_ctlcluster regression from 63: 'database system is starting up'
          fatal error message caused immediate abortion of startup checks. Make the
          check easier and more robust, adapt test cases accordingly.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Add check that PL/Perl works. Check that
          -plperl-X.Y. is installed in t/001_packages.t.
        * t/{040_upgrade.t,041_upgrade_custompaths.t}: Check for pg_restore error
          messages during upgrade.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Avoid pg_restore errors during upgrade (they were
          nonfatal, but look ugly:)
          - Drop 'postgres' db in 8.1+ target cluster if the source cluster already
            has it.
          - Do not use pg_restore's --create for template1.
          - Fix hardcoded library paths before dumping/restoring the cluster, not
            after, to avoid error messages about failed library loads.
      
      postgresql-common (63) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * t/090_multicluster.t, t/100_upgrade_scripts.t: Replace hardcoded '8.1'
          versions in test data with appropriate $MAJORS values.
        * pg_createcluster: Add configure_8_2().
        * pg_ctlcluster, check_running_postmaster(): Check for both 'postmaster' and
          'postgres' processes to also work for 8.2.
        * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Also check for running 'postgres' processes
          (since that's how the server is called in 8.2+). Update number of tests
          everywhere.
        * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Fix regexp for netstat port grepping so that
          ports like '54321' do not match.
        * t/TestLib.pm, pidof(): Make pidof() strict enough to not catch the stats
          collector and writer subprocesses.
        * t/*.t: Various small adaptions to work with 8.2, too.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Add full configuration for 8.1, to test
          8.1->8.2 upgrade.
        * pg_upgradecluster: When upgrading to 8.2, transition changed configuration
          options:
          - preload_libraries -> shared_preload_libraries
          - australian_timezones -> timezone_abbreviations
        * pg_ctlcluster: Instead of parsing pg_hba.conf, just try to connect with
          setting PGPASSWORD to a bogus value, and check for authentication errors.
          This is more robust and more elegant, and also covers nonstandard
          authentication schemes correctly. Closes: #388419
        * debian/supported-versions: Recklessly consider 8.2 as supported to avoid
          whining if 8.2 package gets backported.

          Closes: #386996
        * Reduce options passed to postmaster at runtime to shorten command line and
          make the configuration more obvious and explicit:
          - pg_ctlcluster: Do not pass unix_socket_dir/hba_file/ident_file if it is
            already defined in postgresql.conf.
          - pg_createcluster: If we create a cluster >= 8.0, set hba_file,
            ident_file, and external_pid_file in postgresql.conf.
          - 070_non_postgres_clusters.t: Fix expected output accordingly and
            use 'ls' for socket check instead of looking at the command line.

          variables are respected and have the correct precedence. (This reproduces

          variables but $PGUSER (which is not used at all anywhere).

        * Improve handling of custom socket directories:
          - pg_createcluster: Create a nonexisting directory.

          - t/030_errors.t: Do not create our custom socket dir ourselves any more,

          suitable default cluster) if several local clusters exist and none are on
          the default port.
        * pg_wrapper: Print proper error message if no cluster is suitable as
          default target and point to man pg_wrapper.
        * pg_upgradecluster:
          - Support /etc/postgresql-common/pg_upgradecluster.d/ hook scripts. These
            are called after creating the virgin new version cluster (phase 'init')
            and a second time after the upgrade is complete (phase 'finish').
            PostgreSQL extensions like PostGIS can use these hooks to initialize
            metadata which must not be upgraded from the old cluster, but
            initialized from scratch. Closes: #351571
          - Document this feature in the manpage POD.
          - If upgrade scripts are present, call pg_restore with the new -X
            no-data-for-failed-tables option to not clutter already existing tables
            in the new cluster with data from the old cluster. Abort with an error
            if the installed pg_restore does not support this option.
          - debian/postgresql-common.dirs: Ship
            /etc/postgresql-common/pg_upgradecluster.d/.

        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Do not fail package installation if
          pg_createcluster fails (/var might be full and the admin might want to use
          a different directory). Merely print out an error message and point to
          pg_createcluster and its manpage. (part of bug #368335)
        * t/030_errors.t: Create a temporary 10 MB loop mount on /var/lib/postgresql
          and check that pg_createcluster fails with an appropriate error and leaves
          no cruft behind.
        * pg_createcluster: Call pg_dropcluster to clean up cruft if anything fails
          in the cluster creation process. This avoids an inconsistent system if e.
          g. running out of disk space during installation. Closes: #368335

          - Also recognize Ubuntu dapper version number '6.06LTS'.
          - Fix bashism: 'type -p' -> type.
        * debian/control: Have p-common always depend on the recent p-client-common,
          since the latter ships PgCommon.pm. If the library is out of date, this
          can break operations horribly. Closes: #369289

          <zweije@xs4all.nl>! Closes: #369237
        * t/TestLib.pm: If the test suite is called with FAILURE=shell environment,
          spawn bash before continuing. This makes it easier to debug obscure
          failures.
        * t/TestLib.pm, check_clean(): Check that PostgreSQL TCP sockets are closed.
          Adapt number of tests in all t/*.t.

          TIME_WAIT sockets on the server ports went away, so that the following
          tests will not stumble over them. This seems to be a 7.4 server bug which
          is fixed in 8.1 at least.

          so that the test suite fails early if not.
        * t/050_encodings.t, t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Use ru_RU{,.UTF-8} for
          tests, since they have more potential for failure.
        * t/050_encodings.t:
          - Add check for https://launchpad.net/bugs/39177: Correct encoding of
            server error messages under various locales.
          - Add check for bug #343057: Correct startup if client_encoding and
            lc_messages settings do not match.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Set LC_CTYPE environment variable to unbreak server error
          messages. (Closes https://launchpad.net/bugs/39177). By only setting CTYPE
          we also avoid reintroducing bug #343057. (Yay for postmaster being so anal
          about its environment)
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Consider LC_CTYPE a safe environment variable.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Bump version comparison for restarting

        * Merge support for system wide snakeoil SSL certificate from Ubuntu branch

              group.
            + Remove Recommends: openssl.
          - debian/postgresql-common.postinst:
            + Remove generation of PostgreSQL specific SSL certificate.
            + Add postgres user to the ssl-cert group on upgrades to this version or
              on fresh installs.
          - pg_createcluster:
            + Adapt cert/key paths to snakeoil.
            + Update manpage documentation POD.
            + Enable SSL only if SSL key can be accessed with the cluster owner's
              privileges.
          - debian/README.Debian: Update documentation of SSL certificate handling.

          functions; test read_pg_hba() for now.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check pg_hba.conf if the database superuser can connect
          locally without a password. If not, disable startup checks to avoid asking
          for the superuser password. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/37640)

          nonexisting cluster.
        * pg_ctlcluster, pg_dropcluster: Print meaningful error message on
          nonexisting cluster. Closes: #360701
        * pg_dropcluster: Rename --stop-server to --stop to be consistent with
          pg_createcluster's --start, and update documentation. --stop-server still
          works for backward compatibility, though. Closes: #360697
        * debian/README.Debian:
          - Update createuser invocation description for 8.1+. Closes: #361731
          - Update autovacuum daemon description; explain integrated autovacuuming
            for 8.1+.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Fail autovac-* commands for 8.1+ clusters. Closes: #360888
        * debian/init.d-functions: Fix handling of failing pg_ctlcluster
          invocations. Closes: #362825
        * pg_createcluster: Explain syntax of the environment file in more detail.
        * Add t/110_integrate_cluster.t: Test various scenarios of integrating 
          already existing clusters.

        * t/090_multicluster.t: Check that pg_createcluster's --port option works.
        * t/050_encodings.t: Check correct input/output with Latin-1 and UTF-8
          client encodings in all server locale/encoding combinations.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Do not set LC_ALL and LANG environment variables for the
          postmaster; it handles locales by itself, and explicitly setting them
          breaks sometimes. Thanks to Olleg Samoylov for analyzing this.
          Closes: #343057

      postgresql-common (48) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * t/001_packages.t: Do not fail if postgresql-8.0 is not installed, so that

        * Remove manual conffile transition handling in p-client-common maintainer
          scripts, since current dpkg now gets it right.
        * t/090_multicluster.t: Remove test user_clusters so that the broken one
          does not stay around if no user_clusters file existed before.
        * testsuite: Set all variables that potentially cause Perl taint check
          errors (IFS, CDPATH, ENV, BASH_ENV) to catch taint check bugs.
        * PgCommon.pm: Add two functions prepare_exec() and restore_exec() which set
          up a save (untainted) environment for calling external programs.
        * pg_ctlcluster, pg_maintenance, pg_dropcluster, pg_upgradecluster: Clean

          we don't trash the saved uid and can switch back later. This allows us to
          make use of this function in the test suite, too.
        * t/TestLib.pm: Use change_ugid() in exec_as() get auxiliary groups. This
          makes the test suite work with SSL keys which are only readable by
          ssl-cert group members.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Untaint PID value read from autovacuum.pid.
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Add check that SSL is automatically enabled on

        * pg_createcluster: Improve SSL key access check to be more robust.
        * Enable taint checking in all programs and fix the resulting breakage.

          - Do not split group list at comma; getgrent already converts commas in

        * debian/maintscripts-functions, configure_version(): Improve check for
          already existing clusters to not catch subdirectories with non-cluster

        * Add Czech debconf translations, thanks to Miroslav Kure. Closes: #341951
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Check that the postgres user/group is
          not root; fail installation with a meaningful error message if it is.
          Closes: #340459
        * t/040_upgrade.t: Check upgrading of sequence and stored PL/PgSQL
          procedure.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Change hardcoded and obsolete library paths to
          '$libdir' in the new cluster. This fixes upgrades of 7.4 clusters that
          were upgraded from woody. Closes: #338031
      
      postgresql-common (36) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_createcluster: Add --start-conf option to set start.conf value.
        * t/080_start.conf.t: Test --start-conf option.
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Fix determination of latest version: Use
          highest supported version, not highest installed one.
      
      postgresql-common (35) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: If the socket already responds, but connections fail
          several times in a row, give the postmaster some more time (5s) to
          actually accept connections.
        * t/060_obsolete_confparams.t: Start with a full configuration file for
          every tested version, instead of just upgrading the previously upgraded
          version. This gives an exhaustive check for obsolete parameters.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Handle all outstanding obsolete parameters when
          upgrading to 8.1:
          - bgwriter_percent -> bgwriter_{lru,all}_percent
          - bgwriter_maxpages -> bgwriter_{lru,all}_maxpages
        * PgCommon.pm: Add new function set_cluster_start_conf() for easier change
          of start.conf.
        * Rename test 030_create_errors.t to 030_errors.t since it covers more
          errors than just creation failures.
        * Add test t/080_start.conf.t: Check start.conf handling and upgrading.
        * debian/supported-versions: Add Debian release 3.1.
          Closes: #340397, #340483
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Ignore things in /usr/lib/postgresql that
          are not a version-specific postgresql subdirectory. Closes: #340470
        * t/001_packages.t: Check that procps is installed, the selftests need it.
      
      postgresql-common (34) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Fix syntax error.
        * Add debian/supported-versions: Script to determine the set of supported
          PostgreSQL major versions for the running distro/release. Currently covers
          Debian sid/testing, Ubuntu 5.10 and Ubuntu 6.04.
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Remove hardcoded versions, use
          supported-versions now.
        * Minor test suite variable cleanup.
        * debian/README.Debian: Update for version 8.1.
      
      postgresql-common (33) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_wrapper: Instead of checking $0 against a static list, just check
          whether the program is available in postgresql's bin dir. This allows
          other packages which provide stuff in pg_bin to install additional
          symlinks and get pg_wrapper support for free.
        * pg_checksystem, pg_createcluster, pg_dropcluster, pg_upgradecluster: Check
          that effective user is root before doing anything to avoid confusing error
          messages.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Enhance the check if cluster is up and running to make it
          more reliable. This should fix the 'Database system is starting up' errors
          on autovacuum startup.
        * debian/init.d-functions: Remove legacy init script output and always use
          LSB functions. Add lsb-base dependency.
        * debian/po/de.po: Fix cluster version in German translation.
          Closes: #340096
        * debian/postgresql-common.postrm: Check if /etc/postgresql-common exists
          before trying to remove it. Closes: #340187
        * pg_upgradecluster:
          - Fix error message for nonexisting cluster.
          - Use pg_dump/pg_restore with custom format to support BLOBs.
          - Upgrade databases with disabled connection.
          - Execute ANALYZE after upgrade instead of pg_maintenance.
          - Set correct autovacuum option in postgresql.conf when
            upgrading to 8.1, depending on whether autovacuuming was used for the
            old cluster.
          - Restrict access to the clusters to the cluster owner and to the local
            Unix socket during upgrade. Closes: #338025
          - Convert to 'strict' Perl mode.
      
      postgresql-common (32) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * debian/postgresql-common.config: Fix stderr redirection when checking for
          installed packages. Closes: #339457
        * pg_createcluster: Add a POD stanza about cluster names and their purpose.
        * Explained why and how to delete the main cluster of the new version before
          upgrading the old main cluster. Closes: #339392
        * pg_ctlcluster: Call setsid() to unbind from controlling terminal before
          starting the daemon. Closes: #338862
        * t/020_create_sql_remove.t: Add selftest for associated terminal (bug
          #338862).
        * debian/control: Version dependency on debconf to (>= 0.5.00) to make
          lintian happy.
      
      postgresql-common (31) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Completely new test suite rewritten from scratch; the new suite now uses
          perl instead of shell, can be extented more easily, handles changing of
          supported major versions and does more tests.
        * Fix start.conf handling of pg_upgradecluster:
          - Disable automatic startup of old backup cluster in start.conf.
          - Preserve the original start.conf in new cluster.
          - Error out if original cluster is disabled.
        * Add debconf note about upgrading from obsolete version 8.0.
        * debian/control: Add debconf dependency.
        * Disable automatic autovacuum invocation for -contrib-8.1:
          - pg_ctlcluster: Check version before (not after) complaining about a
            missing pg_autovacuum
          - debian/maintscripts-functions: Check version before trying to call
            autovac-{start,stop}
          - Closes: #337925
        * pg_maintenance: Add --cluster option to work only on selected cluster.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Vacuum and analyze the target cluster after upgrade.
          Closes: #338010
        * pg_ctlcluster: Exit with nonzero if cluster is already running.
        * pg_upgradecluster configuration parameter upgrading:
          - When upgrading to 8.1+, disable obsolete 'rendezvous_name' option.
          - When upgrading to 8.0+, rename sort_mem to work_mem.
      
      postgresql-common (30) unstable; urgency=high
      
        * Urgency high since this fixes a stupid bug introduced in 29.
        * pg_lsclusters: Add -h/--no-header option to suppress header output.
        * pg_createcluster: Fix the default start.conf to contain "auto" by default.
        * PgCommon.pm, [sg]et_conf_value: Regard fractional and negative values as
          simple values that do not need quoting. Closes: #336675
      
      postgresql-common (29) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_wrapper: Do not override an already defined PGPORT environment
          variable. Closes: #335692
        * debian/postgresql-common.cron: Check if pg_maintenance is available before
          calling it, to avoid errors when package is removed, but not purged.
          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).
      
      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.
      
      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
      
      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: #326771
        * debian/README.Devel: Explain the structure and development of Debian's
          PostgreSQL packages.
      
      postgresql-common (25) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_socketdir():
          - If the socket directory is configured in postgresql.conf, use it right
            away instead of doing experiments before.
          - Improved sanity checking.
          - Error out if the data directory cannot be stat'ed, since we cannot
            determine a sensible directory in this case.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Don't call cluster_info() on the yet nonexistant
          new cluster, just check for the data directory for determining if the new
          cluster already exists.
        * debian/control: Add adduser dependency.
        * testsuite: Generalize stopping of servers to work with all versions.
        * Avoid whinging during log rotation if there is no log file at all:
          - debian/postgresql-common.logrotate: Add "missingok".
          - debian/postgresql-common.dirs: Create /var/log/postgresql/.
          - Server packges have been changed to not clean away /var/log/postgresql/
            on purge.
          - Closes: #325330
        * pg_ctlcluster: When starting the autovacuum daemon, don't just wait for 1
          second, but actually test if the server is running  (timeout: 5 seconds);
          this should make the daemon startup much more reliable.
        * Remove test upgrade script upgrade-scripts/all_test_t1.sql, it has done
          its purpose now.
      
      postgresql-common (24) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Add /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_checksystem: Check system parameters
          which are relevant to PostgreSQL. Right now this checks if write caching
          is enabled on any disk containing PostgreSQL clusters.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Call pg_checksystem. Closes: #318928
        * Bump Standards-Version to 3.6.2.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Setup user 'postgres' with /bin/bash as
          default shell. 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: #323878
        * Add debian/postgresql-common.logrotate: Simple log rotation. 
          Closes: #316100
      
      postgresql-common (23) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_maintenance: Change directory to / before changing uid to avoid "could
          not change directory" errors. 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. Closes: #318818
        * debian/README.Debian: Document root.crt handling.
      
      postgresql-common (22) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_createcluster: Set default authentication for TCP connections to "md5"
          instead of the old "ident sameuser" default since it makes a lot more
          sense.
        * tests/000_debs: Fix detection of whether a package is installed.
        * tests/100_encodings: Fix filtering of postmaster processes.
      
      postgresql-common (21) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * README.Debian: Explain that a server is required, give postgresql-8.0
          example. (The descriptions of the packages have been updated in
          postgresql-{7.4,8.0}.) Closes: #313247
        * README.Debian: Add "-s /bin/sh" to su command to also work with disabled
          shells for postgres.
        * README.Debian: Document autovacuum handling.
      
      postgresql-common (20) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * Add infrastructure for executing SQL or executable scripts on clusters and
          databases on upgrade. 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: #315551
      
      postgresql-common (19) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Generate an SSL certificate and key if
          it doesn't exist yet and openssl is installed. Closes: #212526
        * debian/control: Recommend openssl and explain its purpose.
        * pg_createcluster: If SSL certificate and key exist, symlink it to the
          cluster directory where the postmaster looks for them and enable SSL in
          the configuration.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Only restart servers when configuring.
        * debian/init.d-functions: "pg_ctl restart" does not seem to re-read certain
          configuration parameters like the socket directory, so replace it with
          stop+start.
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Create /var/run/postgresql before
          creating the initial cluster to ensure that the socket directory will be
          present. 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.
      
      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: #304466.
        * Added tests/021_invalid_pidfile: Corrupt the pid file in various ways
          while the server is running and down. Also check double start/stop.
      
      postgresql-common (17) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * PgCommon.pm, cluster_port_running(): Attempt to connect() to the server
          socket for probing if the server is running. The previous method of using
          'psql -l' asked for a password if md5/password authentication is used
          locally. Closes: #314292
        * testsuite: Ignore whitespace changes in expected vs. actual output.
        * tests/100_encodings: Fix race condition when showing postmaster processes:
          If we catch the postmaster right at fork() time, ps shows two postmaster
          instances instead of one. Filter them away to get the expected output.
      
      postgresql-common (16) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * pg_createcluster: Add --logfile parameter.

        * debian/rules: Deuglify manpages by building them with --quotes=none.
        * debian/maintscripts-functions: Do not create a default "main" cluster when
          upgrading a server package.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Handle more configuration parameter transitions:
          - syslog -> log_destination
          - log_statement: false/true -> none/all
          - log_{pid,timestamp,hostname,source_port} -> log_line_prefix
          - obsolete max_expr_depth
        * pg_upgradecluster: Use new replace_conf_value() function which
          produces nicer configuration files with transitioned parameters.
        * Add test 120_obsolete_confparams: Upgrade a 7.4 cluster with all
          possible 7.4 options enabled.
        * PgCommon.pm: Fix parsing of autovacuum parameters.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Respect the avac_debug autovacuum configuration option.
        * pg_createcluster: Since the new default socket directory is
          /var/run/postgresql, explicitly set /tmp as socket directory for clusters
          if /var/run/postgresql is not writable by the cluster owner.
        * PgCommon.pm, get_cluster_socketdir(): If unix_socket_directory is not
          specified explicitly in postgresql.conf, default to /var/run/postgresql
          for postgres-owned clusters. Closes: #313651
        * pg_ctlcluster: Do not sleep at all after starting the postmaster if we
          don't run the autovacuum daemon; sleep for a full second if we do.
      
      postgresql-common (15) unstable; urgency=low
      
        * First unstable upload, welcome to the PostgreSQL future.
        * Quiet maintenance:
          - pg_maintenance: Supply -q to vacuumdb unless in verbose mode.
          - postgresql-common.cron.d: Direct stdout to /dev/null.
          - Adapted tests/060_maintenance expected output.
          - Closes: #312298
      
      postgresql-common (14) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check whether mutually exclusive log_*_stats are enabled
          to avoid the "FATAL:  invalid cache id: 30" error on client invocations.
        * Added test 110_invalid_conf: test checking of invalid configurations.
        * Ship test suite in /usr/share/postgresql-common.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Fix logging of autovacuum daemon.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check if autovacuum daemon is really running, exit with an
          error and print log if not.
      
      postgresql-common (13) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_createcluster: Add option --start to start the new cluster right after
          creating it.
        * tests/000_existing_clusters: Check for stale postmaster and pg_autovacuum
          processes.
        * testsuite:
          - Temporarily stop existing servers and move away existing files before
            executing the tests.
          - Restore the original files after the tests.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Check return value of pg_dumpall and psql and fail if
          they are not successful.
        * pg_createuser: Fix indentation of socket warning.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Check if cluster is running, exit with an error if not.
        * pg_createcluster: Added option --encoding to override detection from
          locale.
        * pg_createcluster: Guess default encoding from locale for clusters older
          than 8.0 to get the same behaviour as for 8.0.
        * debian/control: Conflict to postgresql-7.4 << 1:7.4.8-5 since earlier
          versions do not support non-ASCII encodings (due to missing pg_encoding).
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check that the cluster owner uid/gid really exist.
          Closes: #311546
        * pg_lsclusters: Ensure that there is at least one space between the colums.
        * Added tests/100_encodings which checks cluster creation and updates
          for different encodings and locales.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Preserve socket directory, locales, and encoding.
        * tests/100_encodings: Check the locale the postmaster is running under.
      
      postgresql-common (12) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: Remove "status" command, it's not documented and not
          really useful.
        * PgCommon: Fix cluster_info for avac_logfile to make pg_dropcluster clean
          away the autovacuum log file.
        * pg_maintenance: -v only influences vacuumdb output now, always show
          clusters.
        * Added a test suite:
          - Test scripts are in tests/*.
          - Expected output is in tests/*.ex.
          - Test suite is run with './testsuite' as root.
        * pg_createcluster:
          - Converted optional third parameter to option --datadir.
          - Rework POD to have a separate OPTIONS section.
          - Add option description to online help.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Improve POD.
        * pg_upgradecluster:
          - Initial framework for handling obsolete configuration parameters.
          - Handle transition of {tcpip_socket, virtual_host} -> listen_addresses.
        * debian/init.d-functions: If /lib/lsb/init-functions is available, use LSB
          init script functions.
        * pg_ctlcluster: After start, check whether the cluster is really running.
          If it does not come up after 5 seconds, fail and print the recent log
          portion.
      
      postgresql-common (11) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: Cleaned up variables.
        * Factored out change_ugid() to PgCommon.pm and use it in the scripts.
        * Added pg_maintenance(8) program.
        * Activated formerly disabled postgresql-common.cron.d which calls
          pg_maintenance.
        * pg_createcluster: Default to cluster owner 'postgres' if no owner is
          specified.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Fix pg_controldata output parsing and call pg_controldata
          under locale 'C' to work with all locales. Closes: #310716
        * pg_createcluster: Added --socket-dir option.
        * PgCommon.pm: Fix declaration of @lines in set_conf_value() to avoid
          duplicating the lines in configuration files.
        * PgCommon.pm: Converted to use strict to avoid future errors.
        * pg_maintenance: Removed option '-e' from vacuumdb call (leftover from
          debugging).
        * PgCommon.pm, user_cluster_map(): If several clusters exist, but no
          mapping is configured, return not only the default port's cluster version,
          but also its name. This fixes the socket directory determination for this
          case.
        * debian/rules: Fix clean target to remove the manpages created from POD
          again.
        * pg_upgradecluster: Provide socket directory arguments to psql and
          pg_dumpall to make it work for sockets which are not in /tmp.
      
      postgresql-common (10) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: Supply cluster socket directory to pg_autovacuum.
      
      postgresql-common (9) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * Add README.Debian with some general introduction, "first steps for the
          impatient", and pointers to further documentation.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check validity of postmaster locale before setting it.
        * pg_createcluster: Check validity of locale before calling initdb under it.
        * pg_wrapper: Support PGCLUSTER environment variable. Closes: #305912
        * pg_upgradecluster:
          - Copy original configuration files.
          - Configure the target cluster to use the original port, move the old
            cluster to a previously unused port.
          - Start the new cluster after upgrade.
        * debian/init.d-functions: Create /var/run/postgresql if it does not exist.
        * pg_createcluster: Set the socket directory to /var/run/postgresql for
          postgres-owned clusters. Print a warning to change the directory for other
          owners. Closes: #308597
        * pg_wrapper: If PGHOST is not defined, set it to the cluster's socket
          directory to make client programs work with non-default socket
          directories.
      
      postgresql-common (8) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_ctlcluster: Check whether owner is in the shadow group, and keep shadow
          group privilege in this case; this is a poor workaround for Perl's lack of
          an initgroups() functions. Closes: #305427
        * debian/postgresql-common.postinst: Fix adduser invocation, set home
          directory to /var/lib/postgresql. Closes: #308589
        * Remove pg_default.1 and pg_exec.1, these programs do not exist.  Closes:
          #305724
        * debian/postgresql-common.links: Add a symlink postgresql-common(7) to
          pg_wrapper(1) to make finding the manpage a bit more obvious.
        * PgCommon.pm, user_cluster_map(): If there are no clusters, use the latest
          version; this makes it possible to use remote clusters with no local ones.
          Closes: #306836
      
      postgresql-common (7) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * Fix warning when calling pg_wrapper with an invalid cluster.
        * PgCommon.pm, user_cluster_map(): If only one cluster exists, return that
          if no match is found in the map files.
        * pg_ctlcluster: Start the postmaster under the locale that was used with
          initdb.
        * Updated documentation in architecture.html.
      
      postgresql-common (6) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_dropcluster: Check if postmaster and autovacuum log file paths are

        * 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
      
      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.
      
      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
      
      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/<version>/man/... to /usr/share/man.
      
      postgresql-common (2) experimental; urgency=low
      
        * pg_wrapper: Check that specified cluster actually exists.
        * Fix some Perl warnings.

      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. Closes: #277700, #282803, #224047, #229240, #232553, #279184,
          #241337, #247261, #157282, #167864, #305347
        * pg_wrapper now has a central role for mapping clients to clusters, so it
          is not "overkill" any more. Closes: #201702
