Tags: 9.3.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
* New upstream bug fix release: (LP: #1348176)
  - pg_upgrade: Users who upgraded to version 9.3 using pg_upgrade may have
    an issue with transaction information which causes VACUUM to eventually
    fail. These users should run the script provided in the release notes to
    determine if their installation is affected, and then take the remedy
    steps outlined there.
  - Various data integrity and other bug fixes.
  - Secure Unix-domain sockets of temporary postmasters started during make
    check.
    Any local user able to access the socket file could connect as the
    server's bootstrap superuser, then proceed to execute arbitrary code as
    the operating-system user running the test, as we previously noted in
    CVE-2014-0067. This change defends against that risk by placing the
    server's socket in a temporary, mode 0700 subdirectory of /tmp.
  - See release notes for details:
    http://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1534/
* Remove pg_regress patches to support --host=/path, obsolete with above
  upstream changes and not applicable any more.
* Drop tcl8.6 patch, applied upstream.
* Add missing logrotate test dependency.
