When using the BSD UUID functions, contrib/uuid-ossp expects uuid_create() to produce a version-1 UUID. FreeBSD still does so, but in recent NetBSD releases that function produces a version-4 (random) UUID instead. That's not acceptable for our purposes: if the user wanted v4 she would have asked for v4, not v1. Hence, check the version digit and complain if it's not '1'. Also drop the documentation's claim that the NetBSD implementation is usable. It might be, depending on which OS version you're using, but we're not going to get into that kind of detail. (Maybe someday we should ditch all these external libraries and just write our own UUID code, but today is not that day.) Nazir Bilal Yavuz, with cosmetic adjustments and docs by me. Backpatch to all supported versions. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3848059.1661038772@sss.pgh.pa.us Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17358-89806e7420797025@postgresql.org |

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
