Hello PostgreSQL developers,
The testsuite of 8.3 beta 2 fails on the Alpha architecture (versions
up to 8.2 worked fine). Apparently there is some disagreement about
how to report divisions by zero:
float8.out:
- ERROR: value out of range: overflow
+ ERROR: invalid argument for power function
errors.out:
- ERROR: division by zero
+ ERROR: floating-point exception
+ DETAIL: An invalid floating-point operation was signaled. This probably =
means an out-of-range result or an invalid operation, such as division by z=
ero.
and some more (case, transactions, guc, plpgsql).
The full build log including diffs and initdb/postmaster logs is on
http://experimental.ftbfs.de/fetch.php?&pkg=3Dpostgresql-8.3&ver=3D8.3%7Ebe=
ta2-1&arch=3Dalpha&stamp=3D1193991806&file=3Dlog&as=3Draw
Thank you!
Martin
