It does seem like a hack. Couldn't this be implemented with a backend switch instead? Also, as a small practical matter, since this is a server-side program (since it's being used as archive_command), we shouldn't put it into the pg_basebackup directory, because that would blur the lines about what to install where, in particular for the translations. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
