You mean it's not part of intarray contrib ?I thought so !Sorry !Then who's responsible for maintenance of it ?

I had missed this one.The summer heat has burnt by brain it seems ;)

I know, but I was hoping for something like :myltree[pos]
instead of the usable, but a bit huge, and probably slower :ltree2text(subltree(myltree, pos-1,pos ));

I know, too, but :

test=> SELECT lca( '1.2.3'::ltree, '1.2.4'::ltree ); lca
----- 1.2
(1 ligne)

test=> SELECT lca( '1.2.3'::ltree, '1.2'::ltree ); lca
----- 1
(1 ligne)
In the case of the 'longest common prefix' I'd need the second SELECT to  
return the same as the first. This is to determine a 'parent' path that  
includes a bunch of other paths, in that case, if the parent is part of  
the original set, I get the parent's parent instead of what I want.

Yes ! But I had missed nlevel() to my shame.
thanks !
