Folks,
Pardon me if this is redundant, but again the pgsql-bugs archives are not
working.
Summary: Various versions of AGE() give inconsistent results
Versions Tested: 7.4.2, 7.4.3, 8.0b4
Severity: Annoyance
Description: The age() built-in function sometimes truncates hours, minutes
and seconds, and sometimes it doesn't, depending on the parameters. This
seems inconsistent and confusing.
gforge=> select age('2004-01-01'::TIMESTAMP);
age
----------------
9 mons 27 days
(1 row)
gforge=> select age(now(),'2004-01-01'::TIMESTAMP);
age
------------------------------------
9 mons 27 days 11:17:19.8895479999
(1 row)
