Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Sidney,
You absolutely right about, i've changed the new patch to reflect that.
The new patch works with the 0.96 release, i could remove all "if
settings.DATABASE_ENGINE == 'firebird'" if the oracle branch was used, but
right now the trunk is not recommendable according to django devs.
The test suite reports 1 failure and 1 error:
{{{

But don't know where too look to resolve these.
Another thing, TextField/BLOB are not searchable in Firebird 1.5 and 2.0.
If we use "CONTAINING" the column index is not used and we loose case
sensitive. I've tried to indicate the field type so we could do a special
search for TextField's, but i'll wait for the query.py refactoring.
In Firebird 2.1 BLOB's TEXT will work like VARCHARS, but it's still in
alpha testing.
If anyone has any suggestion about the test errors and textfield's, please
help out.
