This update for postgresql94 fixes the following issues:
- Security and bugfix release 9.4.6:
* *** IMPORTANT ***
Users of version 9.4 will need to reindex any jsonb_path_ops
indexes they have created, in order to fix a persistent issue
with missing index entries.
* Fix infinite loops and buffer-overrun problems in regular
expressions (CVE-2016-0773, bsc#966436).
* Fix regular-expression compiler to handle loops of constraint
arcs (CVE-2007-4772).
* Prevent certain PL/Java parameters from being set by
non-superusers (CVE-2016-0766, bsc#966435).
* Fix many issues in pg_dump with specific object types
* Prevent over-eager pushdown of HAVING clauses for
GROUPING SETS
* Fix deparsing error with ON CONFLICT ... WHERE clauses
* Fix tableoid errors for postgres_fdw
* Prevent floating-point exceptions in pgbench
* Make \det search Foreign Table names consistently
* Fix quoting of domain constraint names in pg_dump
* Prevent putting expanded objects into Const nodes
* Allow compile of PL/Java on Windows
* Fix "unresolved symbol" errors in PL/Python execution
* Allow Python2 and Python3 to be used in the same database
* Add support for Python 3.5 in PL/Python
* Fix issue with subdirectory creation during initdb
* Make pg_ctl report status correctly on Windows
* Suppress confusing error when using pg_receivexlog with older
servers
* Multiple documentation corrections and additions
* Fix erroneous hash calculations in gin_extract_jsonb_path()
- For the full release notse, see:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/release-9-4-6.html
- PL/Perl still needs to be linked with rpath, so that it can find
libperl.so at runtime.
