If you update the client, you should also update the server to make sure you are not left without the server-side tools. Do something like: portupgrade postgresql-client postgresql-server

Update all PostgreSQL to fix a security flaw

2006-05-23T21:18:58Z

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group today released versions 8.1.4, 8.0.8, 7.4.13 and 7.3.15. This is an urgent update to close a security hole which can permit a SQL injection attack on some applications running PostgreSQL. Users are urged to apply the update as soon as reasonably possible. Since the update affects client functionality, most driver projects will be updating this week as well. Because the security issue involved is complex, we have added a section in Techdocs to explain it: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.52. Please read this first before applying the updates. Also, fix rc_subr startup problems on FreeBSD-7.x. Security: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.50 PR: ports/95154

Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.

2006-02-20T20:47:50Z

We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.

Handle a change in rc.subr. nowadays, "faststart" is used instead of

Welcome to PostgreSQL 8.1.

2005-11-10T02:23:38Z

The new release includes performance improvements and advanced SQL features which will support bigger data warehouses, higher-volume transaction processing, and more complex distributed enterprise software. Major new features in this release include: Roles: PostgreSQL now supports database roles, which simplify the management of large numbers of users with complex overlapping database rights. IN/OUT Parameters: PostgreSQL functions now support IN, OUT and INOUT parameters, which substantially improves support of complex business logic for J2EE and .NET applications. Two-Phase Commit (2PC): Long in demand for WAN applications and heterogeneous data centers using PostgreSQL, this feature allows ACID-compliant transactions across widely separated servers. Some Performance Enhancements found in this release include: Improved Multiprocessor (SMP) Performance: The buffer manager for 8.1 has been enhanced to scale almost linearly with the number of processors, leading to significant performance gains on 8-way, 16-way, dual-core, and multi-core CPU servers. Bitmap Scan: Indexes will be dynamically converted to bitmaps in memory when appropriate, giving up to twenty times faster index performance on complex queries against very large tables. Table Partitioning: The query planner is now able to avoid scanning whole sections of a large table using a technique known as Constraint Exclusion. Shared Row Locking: PostgreSQL's "better than row-level locking" now supports even higher levels of concurrency through the addition of shared row locks for foreign keys.
