* New upstream security/bug fix release:
  - Support explicit placement of the temporary-table schema within
    search_path, and disable searching it for functions and operators.
    This is needed to allow a security-definer function to set a truly
    secure value of search_path. Without it, an unprivileged SQL user
    can use temporary objects to execute code with the privileges of
    the security-definer function (CVE-2007-2138). See "CREATE
    FUNCTION" for more information.
  - Fix to_char() so it properly upper/lower cases localized day or
    month names.
  - "/contrib/tsearch2" crash fixes.
  - Require "COMMIT PREPARED" to be executed in the same database as
    the transaction was prepared in.
  - New traditional (Taiwan) Chinese FAQ.
  - Prevent the statistics collector from writing to disk too
    frequently.
  - Fix potential-data-corruption bug in how "VACUUM FULL" handles
    "UPDATE" chains.
  - Fix bug in domains that use array types.
  - Fix "pg_dump" so it can dump a serial column's sequence using "-t"
    when not also dumping the owning table.
  - Planner fixes, including improving outer join and bitmap scan
    selection logic.
  - Fix possible wrong answers or crash when a PL/pgSQL function tries
    to RETURN from within an EXCEPTION block.
  - Fix PANIC during enlargement of a hash index.
* debian/patches/04-timezone-symlinks.patch: Adapt to slightly changed
  Makefile of 8.2.4.
* Remove debian/patches/12-vacuum-cycle-hang.patch: Fixed upstream.
* debian/postgresql-8.2.postrm: Fix bashism.
