points on the surface of the earth and locating points within a
specified distance using an index based on the contrib/cube package. The
new functions are all of language type sql. A couple of bugs in the old
earthdistance function based on the point datatype are fixed. A
regression test has been added for both sets of functions. The README
file has been updated to include documentation on the new stuff. There
are comments about how this package is also useful for Astronomers.

(usually bison output files), not as standalone files. This hack
works around flex's insistence on including <stdio.h> before we are
able to include postgres.h; postgres.h will already be read before
the compiler starts to read the flex output file. Needed for largefile
support on some platforms.
left a reference to cube in a comment in the regression test (that also
shows up in the expected output). This doesn't cause any real problem,
but people who read the comment might be confused. Attached is a diff to
remove the reference.

-Support for mirroring tables in different Schema's
-Improved documentation for compiling with 7.1.x and 7.2.x
-Fixes a buffer overrun bug.

Create objects in public schema.
Make spacing/capitalization consistent.
Remove transaction block use for object creation.
Remove unneeded function GRANTs.
contrib/contrib-global.mk library and _generally_ behave like
Makefiles for other contrib modules.
Besides it fixes Perl's interpolation of $libdir variable, which
should be passed to backend instead. This patch is done against
PostgreSQL 7.3b2
Besides, I want to thank Peter Eisentraut for his very friendly and
helpful attitude and politely ask him to check whether contrib
modules actually continue to work after he implements another
major change to their build process.

Good point. Thank you Masaru for the suggested fix.
Attached is a patch to fix the bug found by Masaru. His example now
produces:
regression=# SELECT * FROM connectby('connectby_tree', 'keyid',
'parent_keyid', '11', 0, '-') AS t(keyid int, parent_keyid int, level
int,
branch text);
keyid | parent_keyid | level | branch
-------+--------------+-------+----------
11 | | 0 | 11
10 | 11 | 1 | 11-10
111 | 11 | 1 | 11-111
1 | 111 | 2 | 11-111-1
(4 rows)
While making the patch I also realized that the "no show branch" form of
the function was not going to work very well for recursion detection.
Therefore there is now a default branch delimiter ('~') that is used
internally, for that case, to enable recursion detection to work. If
you need a different delimiter for your specific data, you will have to
use the "show branch" form of the function.

causing the postmaster to crash when the trigger was running on a table
without a primary key.
I've also updated the docs to explicitly say that tables need primary
keys.

YYERROR_VERBOSE" from contrib/cube and contrib/seg, and adjusts the expected
output accordingly. Hopefully this will consistently pass across multiple
bison versions.
Joe Conway
instead of int, change the calculation method to use the haversine
formula
which is more accurrate for short distances, added a grant to public for
geo_distance and added a regression test.
I will resubmit the earth distance stuff based on cube after 7.3 is
released.
