Works for me: regression=# create table foo (f1 int); CREATE TABLE regression=# insert into foo values(1),(2); INSERT 0 2 regression=# alter table foo add column b bool default true; ALTER TABLE regression=# select * from foo; f1 | b ----+--- 1 | t 2 | t (2 rows) Please provide a concrete test case to demonstrate what you are seeing. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
