Description Tom Hughes 2007-12-03 14:35:37 UTC 
Description of problem:

The PostgreSQL ODBC driver does work as it contains symbols that cannot be
resolved so cannot be loaded.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

postgresql-odbc-08.02.0200-2.fc8.x86_64

How reproducible:

Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Define a PostgreSQL ODBC data source
2. Try and connect to it
  
Actual results:

Driver fails to load:

dellow [~] % isql usage     
isql: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/psqlodbc.so: undefined symbol: INIT_CONNLOCK

Expected results:

Driver loads.

Patch to fix CONNLOCK macros

The problem (which looks like it has come from upstream) is that some of the
CONNLOCK macros are not properly defined which not building in thread safe
mode. This patch fixes that.

The alternative fix is to build it in thread safe mode by configuring with
--enable-pthreads.
Comment 2 Tom Lane 2007-12-03 16:34:14 UTC 
This is fixed in rawhide (08.02.0500) so I suppose back-porting that is the thing to do.
