1. pg_dump doesn't work on Linux PPC

   PostgreSQL Bugs List <pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org> — 2000-11-04T21:13:14Z

   Marco Pratesi (pratesi@fitcom.it) reports a bug with a severity of 1
   The lower the number the more severe it is.
   
   Short Description
   pg_dump doesn't work on Linux PPC
   
   Long Description
   The description is very simple.
   I am using PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on Yellow Dog Linux CS 1.2,
   I use the official RPMs.
   
   bash$ pg_dump pgmarket -u
   Username: postgres
   Password: 
   
   getFuncs(): SELECT failed.  Explanation from backend: 'ERROR:  getattproperties: no attribute tuple 1255 -2
   '.
   bash$ uname -a
   Linux localhost.localdomain 2.2.16 #9 Mon Aug 7 14:59:54 CEST 2000 ppc unknown
   
   If I have to dump my data, I have to downgrade to the 7.0 version,
   but with 7.0 I have a problem with a JOIN, hence I have had
   to upgrade.
   To store my data on ascii files, I have to use COPY
   on the psql prompt.
   
   Also pgaccess and ODBC connections don't work, the error messages
   are almost the same.
   
   Is it a known problem ?
   Does it exist a workaround ?
   Can it be solved ?
   
   Many thanks in advance.

   There are known problems with the _official_ RPM's on PPC. 
   Specifically, they are compiled with an optimization setting too high. 
   Look for 7.0.3 PPC RPM's soon.
