As much as I would like to say the community
I want to make a client application that logs onto a postgresql server
with an individual postgresql user role for each user. This is as
opposed to having one user role for the entire app, storing that
password on the local client, and using the client app to do
authentication against a a tabl

Fellow PostgreSQL fans,
Last year there was a pretty lengthy discussion (Tom Lane offered a lot of
insights) on this list about deprecating the PGPASSWORD environmental variable.
I understand the security issues here very well. However, up through version
8.1, it has been easy to use pg_dump a

So far, the patched binary seems to have fixed the statistics issue in
my environment. pgstat.stat is now updating constantly,
pg_stat_user_tables is updating correctly, and autovacuum is running!
Thanks for your quick response to this issue! Let me know if there is
anything else I can do to ass
a feeling I have). But the important part is that either way I think
it's way too early to drop 8.1.
I agree. Started a project last summer, using 8.1, rollout is now. > 1 year
for database projects is not unusual, and having the database release
dropped during this time is not nice.

Will do - thanks Magnus! I'll test it for a while and post the results
here.

Ok. I've built a binary for you at

I don't think so. You should build 8.0 binaries until the community
stops maintaining PostgreSQL 8.0.
This is what we do for RPMs -- I know it is
