Ответ на Bug: Sequence generator insert  ("Burr, Colin" <CBurr@herald.com>)
Список pgsql-sql
I just re-read your message, and it occurred to me that for the second
insert you may have provided an explicit value for the 'id', is that right?
You may need to give more detail about the inserts. I'd be mildly surprised,
but not concerned if the insert that failed used an explicit value for the
id (ir didn't use the default) but still used (and therefore incremented)
the sequence.

Regards
Iain
