In general it seems like our usage of loadable modules treats them all as independent objects, so that not using RTLD_GLOBAL would be a more sensible policy.

The problem is apparently that when CREATE LANGUAGE creates a language from a pg_pltemplate entry, it creates the proname from the tmplhandler name, and if it finds a fitting proname entry already, it used that one. So when you create plpython2 first and plpython3 second, the pg_language entries of the latter point to the pg_proc entries of the former. If you fix that up manually (create additional pg_proc entries and fix the pg_language entries to point there), it works better. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

[HACKERS] testing plpython3u on 9.0beta2
I received two errors (described below) in installing 9.0beta2 on Kubuntu 10.04 , RhodiumToad on IRC recommended I post them here. I did not have a 2.x or 3.x python dev installed, but I was really only interested in python3 via plython3u. So... sudo apt-get install python3-all-dev Configure works fine... "./configure --with-pgport=5433 --with-python --with-ossp-uuid --with-libxml --with-libxslt --with-perl" "make" fails while trying to build plpython, Cannot find python.h i believe(I sadly did not save the text of the error and have since continued onward. But it was not finding a file while building plpython. I believe I would have to uninstall a few things to reproduce.) So I tried installing the 2.x dev. After running "sudo apt-get install python-all-dev" then "make;make check;sudo make install", it all worke fine. However, when issuing a "createlang plpython3u template1", I get "createlang: language installation failed: ERROR: could not access file "$libdir/plpython3": No such file or directory". But if I "createlang plpython2u template1" first, then it will allow "createlang plpython3u template1". Am I doing something incorrect, or...?
