For any of you out there that have tried this module already please forgive
me but there is a bug in the SQL install script.
While I have tried and tested the code under a public schema, when I
packaged up the install script I thought it would be tidier if it was all
put into the pg_catalog schema (due to the large amount of overloaded
functions). A simple append of pg_catalog in most cases worked but I
overlooked the correct format for the CREATE OPERATOR statement within
schemas (it was actually a cut and paste from pgAdmin II which gives the
incorrect format - poor excuse I know!).
While the original SQL script runs without any errors, and appears to work,
it may have some undesirable side effects. I therefore suggest you use the
updated attached install script (citext.sql - the other files remain
unchanged).
Regards
Donald Fraser.

Ps. I don't mind adding and maintaining the code under gborg, I just need
some guidance on how to do it... anyone done this before?

Tip: If you want to un-install the module, having already run the citext.sql
script file, simply execute the following SQL:
DROP FUNCTION citextin(cstring) CASCADE;
This will remove anything to do with the citext data type.
