Either way you should be able to determine the minor release. It is always a good idea to keep up-to-date on minor releases (where the version number only changes to the right of the second dot), because in PostgreSQL we only include fixes for serious bugs and security vulnerabilities in minor releases, not new features. See this page for additional discussion of the issue: http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning/ This is even more important than usual for 9.3, which had some data corruption bugs in early versions. -- Kevin Grittner EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
