It's not ideal, I agree, but I *definately* don't think this is grounds for changing the release schedule. > No real issue with the nicety for newbies, but am very concerned > about the lack of a dependancy check here. Well, how would you suggest we fix this? ISTM this is partially a result of the fact that we don't produce dependancy information for function bodies. While it might be possible to do so (in 7.4) for certain types of functions (e.g. for functions defined in SQL, PL/PgSQL, etc.), I can't see a general solution (e.g. for functions defined in C). And adding random hacks to get specific functions (e.g. nextval()) to work does not strike me as a very good idea.
