supported versions of our database system, including 9.6.5, 9.5.9,
9.4.14, 9.3.19, and 9.2.23.
This release includes fixes that prevent a crash in pg_restore when
using parallel mode. It also patches over a few other bugs reported
since the last releases in August.
Additionally, in 9.4.14 only, there is a fix to an issue with walsenders
preventing primary-server shutdown unless immediate shutdown mode is used.
Users should plan to update at the next convenient downtime.
Bug Fixes and Improvements
This update also fixes a number of bugs reported in the last few weeks.
Some of these issues affect only version 9.6, but many affect all
supported versions:
* Show foreign tables in information_schema.table_privileges view.
This fix applies to new databases, see the release notes for the
procedure to apply the fix to an existing database.
* Correctly identify columns that are of a range type or domain type
over a composite type or domain type being searched for
* Prevent crash when passing fixed-length pass-by-reference data types
to parallel worker processes
* Change ecpg’s parser to allow RETURNING clauses without attached C
variables
* Change ecpg’s parser to recognize backslash continuation of C
preprocessor command lines
* Improve selection of compiler flags for PL/Perl on Windows
