This situation is not too hard to get into if you try to restore a dump from an old database that used contrib/tsearch2 --- the dump may create a partially broken type "public.tsvector" while the built-in pg_catalog.tsvector still remains. There's some hints in the manual about safe migration from tsearch2 to built-in tsearch: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/textsearch-migration.html The whole thing is a bit of a mess :-(, and has certainly helped make it clear that we need to invent some better-defined module concept to help with major upgrades/replacements of add-on modules. regards, tom lane
