Package: postgresql-client-8.2
Version: 8.2.4-2~bpo1
Severity: wishlist
According to policy sec 11.4
<http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-customized-programs.html#s11.4>,
"Thus, every program that launches an editor or pager must use the
EDITOR or PAGER environment variable to determine the editor or pager the user
wishes to use. If these variables are not set, the programs
/usr/bin/editor and /usr/bin/pager should be used, respectively."
The easiest way to implement this would be to have psql launch
sensible-editor(1) instead of vi(1).

Version: 8.3~beta3-1
This was fixed in postgresql-8.3 two months ago:
postgresql-8.3 (8.3~beta3-1) experimental; urgency=low
* Third beta release of PostgreSQL 8.3.
* debian/rules:
- Ignore test suite failure on alpha for now, since it behaves weird on
some floating point operations (regression in glibc and gcc-4.2). Bug is
under investigation. Fixes FTBFS for now. (see #449002)
- Remove test suite ignoring for mips and mipsel again, seems the buildds
finally got a fixed kernel.
* Add debian/patches/12-psql-sensible-editor.patch: Use sensible-editor
instead of vi as editor fallback in psql if $EDITOR and friends are not
defined. (Closes: #451553)
* Enable OSSP UUID support, add build dependency libossp-uuid-dev.
(Closes: #451336)
* Install some missing .so libraries.
* debian/rules: Check that all files in debian/tmp get installed to
somewhere, and fail the build if not.

postgresql-8.3 will become the default in unstable in a few days, so I
consider this fixed.
Thanks,
Martin
