AFAIK there have never been any "data migration widgets" in any postgres RPM shipped by Red Hat. I know some other distros have tried to handle that automagically, but it generally doesn't work very well --- running arbitrary code in a scriptlet is a bad idea. Upstream is aware that upgrade-in-place would be a nice thing to have, but it's a hard problem... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 398221 *** |
