Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: postgresql-plpython-8.1

There is a known bug in plpython on Python 2.5 (see
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-11/msg00167.php) which
causes postgresql to crash due to an invalid pointer. Feisty shares this
problem, as the postgresql-plpython-8.1 package appears to be built with
Python 2.5 (judging from the dependencies).

This problem bit me while doing Launchpad development on my Feisty box.
I can figure out a minimal procedure to reproduce the problem if
required.

I have worked around it by copying over
/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/lib/plpython.so from an edgy box. I guess one
could also work around by building the postgresql-8.1 source packages
against Python 2.4.

** Affects: postgresql-8.1 (Ubuntu)
