Tom Lane 8dcd1c3564 Restore the previous semantics of get_constraint_index().
Commit 8b069ef5d changed this function to look at pg_constraint.conindid
rather than searching pg_depend.  That was a good performance improvement,
but it failed to preserve the exact semantics.  The old code would only
return an index that was "owned by" (internally dependent on) the
specified constraint, whereas the new code will also return indexes that
are just referenced by foreign key constraints.  This confuses ALTER
TABLE, which was implicitly expecting the previous semantics, into
failing with errors like
    ERROR:  relation 146621 has multiple clustered indexes
or
    ERROR:  "pk_attbl" is not an index for table "atref"

We can fix this without reverting the performance improvement by adding
a contype check in get_constraint_index().  Another way could be to
make ALTER TABLE check it, but I'm worried that extension code could
also have subtle dependencies on the old semantics.

Tom Lane and Japin Li, per bug #17409 from Holly Roberts.
Back-patch to v14 where the error crept in.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

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
