here the table with reviews of users "uid" done by users "author":
CREATE TABLE words_reviews (
uid integer NOT NULL CHECK (uid <> author) REFERENCES words_users
ON DELETE CASCADE,
author integer NOT NULL REFERENCES words_users(uid) ON DELETE
CASCADE,
nice integer NOT NULL CHECK (nice = 0 OR nice = 1),
review varchar(255),
updated timestamptz NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY(uid, author)
);
Since I am merging user ids (from several to one), I need to change the
records in the above table too.
I need to update the PK by changing either "uid" or "author".
But this might give me conflicts, because there might be such a PK
already...
