No, the danger is that someone generates a backup with one version of the plugin and then restores with a different version of the plugin. That would be frightfully easy to do when doing a minor upgrade, for example. Or on a standby database if you've installed a new version of the plugin since the standby was built. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com Ask me about EnterpriseDB's PostGIS support! -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
