Description:        check constraint fails on update
Details:

Hi All. A simple table to test:

CREATE TABLE simples
(
  coluna varchar(10)
)
WITHOUT OIDS;

ALTER TABLE simples
  ADD CONSTRAINT simples_coluna_check CHECK (coluna::text = 'girafa'::text
OR coluna::text = 'bode'::text);

INSERT INTO simples (coluna) VALUES ('girafa');
(ok)

INSERT INTO simples (coluna) VALUES ('bode');
(ok)

INSERT INTO simples (coluna) VALUES ('macaco'); (violates constraints, ok).


UPDATE simples set coluna = 'girafa';

FAILS!

ERROR:  attribute 1 has wrong type
DETAIL:  Table has type character varying, but query expects character
varying.
