I'm a bit baffled by this, i can't drop a table and I'm getting the
most bizarre message that doesn't make sense to me. To make things
worse, I was able to drop it on my test database which is a dump of
my production database running the same version of postgresql.
The index it's complaining about is the primary for a different table.
Does anyone have any ideas?
basement=# \d game_giveaway
Table "public.game_giveaway"
Column | Type | Modifiers
