Jean-Francois Leveque (leveque@webmails.com) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
GRANT SELECT ON ... TO username does REVOKE ALL ON ... FROM PUBLIC at the same time
Long Description
System: SuSE 7.0
PostgreSQL RPM: postgres-7.0.2-29
select version(); :
PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc 2.95.2
When I grant select on a table to a user, it also revokes all from
other users, database object owner included (The owner can
no more select from the table, for example).
