The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 19098 Logged by: Bartłomiej Nowak Email address: n.bartek3762@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 18.0 Operating system: Linux pop-os x86_64 Description: Using unique constraint, at Postgres 18, I am able to use `WITHOUT OVERLAPS` using that, in fact I created index, that I can see at pg_indexes: `CREATE UNIQUE INDEX inventoryoffer_unique_index ON public.test_table USING gist (inventory_id, account_id, from_offer_id, for_account_id, _availability_range);` It says, that it is gist UNIQUE index. But if I would like to just create index like that (copy and paste that definition from pg_indexes) I am getting error: [0A000] ERROR: access method "gist" does not support unique indexes which sounds weird, in fact of `WITHOUT OVERLAPS` existence
