Обсуждение: Bug Report -- information schema view is broken 'unrecognized privilege type: "RERERENCES"'

I haven't seen it mentioned, but I could have missed it. It seems like this
kind of thing must be known and probably fixed already? I'm actually still
using 7.4 beta 5. IIRC that was the last beta before the release and there
were no changes for 7.4.

Note the "RERERENCES" in the last line of the view definition.

Naughty naughty.

Works for me in REL7_4 CVS tip.  You could dig in the committers
archives or release notes to see when it was fixed.

Yeah, actually I didn't realize I was behind. I think I was behind because
Debian wanted to update perl in order to upgrade the perl pg driver and...

Anyways, I just updated and it's gone, but since I had already fixed the view
definition before upgrading that doesn't really prove anything.

7.4.1 does say:

   * Fix information schema view constraint_column_usage for foreign
       keys (Peter)

Which I presume covered this.

But there were changes between 7.4 and 7.4.2 ;-)  And I believe that
this fix is one of them.

This is fixed in current sources.
