Jeff Synnestvedt ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) reports a bug with a severity of 3
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
CREATE TABLE with long table name and long serial column name can cause conflicting 
sequence naming

Long Description
When two tables are named with similiar names and those tables also have declarations 
of a serial column with long (again similiar names) postgresql returns the error(this 
is the error from my example code when run from psql):

ERROR:  Relation 'tablewithreal_tableidwithre_seq' already exists

I am running version:

                           version                           
-------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 7.1.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
(1 row)

on distribution 7.2 of RedHat linux  kernel 2.4.7-10


Sample Code

CREATE TABLE tablewithreallylongname(
tableidwithreallylongname serial NOT NULL UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY
);


CREATE TABLE tablewithreallylongname2(
tableidwithreallylongname serial NOT NULL UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY
);
