Summary 0003965: Update to postgresql-8.1.15 not released
Description There is a bug in 8.1.15 that crashes the autovacuum process.

Happens mostly on heavily used production data bases, because the crash occurs only after vacuuming a whole database for anti-transaction-wraparound purposes. That means that it occurs infrequently and is hard to track down.

It's fixed in 8.1.16, so I hope that you can release an update to the latest version 8.1.18.

Is the centosplus pgsql simply a rebuild of the CentOS 5 RPM?

Additional Information Please see

which is bug #5151 on the pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org list.

ftp://updates.redhat.com/enterprise/4AS/en/RHWAS/SRPMS [^] is listing postgresql-8.1.15-1.el4s1.1.src.rpm as the latest one...

afaik, the centosplus packages are based on RHWAS not http://www.postgresql.org/ [^]

Ok, now I understand what Tom Lane has written in

119/22347.1256938526@sss.pgh.pa.us">news://news.gmane.org:119/22347.1256938526@sss.pgh.pa.us [119/22347.1256938526@sss.pgh.pa.us" target="_blank">^]

"Red Hat stopped supporting the RHEL-4 App Stack product a while ago;
since CentOS is evidently copying that, you should not hold your
breath waiting for an update :-( . However, as far as I can see
the RHEL-5 SRPM should be completely compatible with RHEL-4 ---
so just grab the 8.1.18 SRPM from RHEL-5 and rebuild it locally."

So, I don't know what your next steps will be.

RPMs are here:
http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.1/redhat/rhel-4-x86_64/repoview/ [^]
http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.1/redhat/rhel-4-i386/repoview/ [^]
http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/howtoyum.php [^]

For me an update to centosplus would be nice.

It seems that your bugtracker can't parse news URLs correctly. Sorry for that, but gmane.org is an excellent way to read mailing lists you are not subscribed to.
