Yes, I was concerned too that everything was in there. I checked the initdb.sh logs and found that the only thing not added was the checking of the max number of connections before checking the max number of buffers, which I added. The other stuff was in there. I also checked pg_id's recent changes and those were in there too.
Andrew, I assume this was a new implementation of initdb, and not taken from an older initdb C implementation made by a company.
This isn't really a patch but a C replacement of a critical shell
script so there is reason to double-check things.
Yes, I worked from initdb.sh, not from any other source. It's "all my own work" :-) I think I started with 1.201 and later upgraded to 1.203.
I agree it needs careful checking - the more eyeballs the better.
cheers
