at all in 8.1.0 -- regardless of the stdin redirection, the
createuser program appears to ignore the stdin information and
insists on prompting for the input instead.
Don't know what's changed, but it could be something that happened
when roles were introduced. A way to work around it would be to issue
the SQL "CREATE USER... PASSWORD 'foo'" via psql.
That's a great idea, Richard - thanks, I'll give this a shot --
Oh - anything else you come across in the upgrade would be of interest
to many here, myself included ;-)
So far, so good in general -- I was unable to execute the regression
tests (installcheck) - the C compilation fails. But I'm successfully
executing all of our own app-level tests, so I'm optimistic...other than
that, I did send out a list of questions around configure options, but
haven't gotten any responses; but I will post to the list about anything
else I come across!
