Hello Peter, >> I'm not sure what is the suggestion wrt to the documentation text. Is the >> issue only with the first introductory sentence? Would removing it be >> enough? > > Yes. But it would be even better to fix pg_dump. Sure. The purpose of Lætitia patch is simply to document the consequences if the current behavior. Fixing pg_dump is another issue:-) I guess that this would involve postponing all non trivial CHECK declarations to after all table and function creations. While waiting for such a significant change, ISTM that documenting the issue is a reasonable option. -- Fabien.
