This is a first pass at Daniele's suggestion in Issue #8, although it is
definitely still buggy -- it is still possible for another transaction
to get in an AccessExclusive lock and perform DDL either before the
ACCESS SHARE lock is acquired or immediately after it is released.
Actually this leaves out the case of the SQL schema not consistent with the
library/binary installed, and this is a relatively likely case:
the user has run "make install" but the repack schema was already loaded
from an older version.
repack_all_database can return an error message: in case of any error different
from "missing schema" return the error and keep processing the other databases
instead of printing and stopping the program.
The output of the program is now something like:
$ pg_reorg --all
pg_reorg: reorg database "contrib_regression"
pg_reorg: reorg database "template1" ... skipped: pg_reorg is not installed in the database
As far as I can tell, the code already supports these index options, so
put in a small installcheck test exercising these index options and call
it good.
ALTER TABLE [table_name] ENABLE ALWAYS TRIGGER z_reorg_trigger
so that pg_reorg and the z_reorg_trigger can properly work in "replica" mode,
as when using pg_reorg on a Slony slave.

there are views or functions depending on columns after dropped ones.
The issue was reported by depesz, and original patch by Denish Patel.
Improved documentation how to build binaries from source.
COPYRIGHT updated.
have a primary key. Some of users want to use not-null unique keys rather than
primary keys because postgres doesn't support REINDEX PRIMARY KEY CONCURRENTLY.
- Support 9.1dev.
- Improve Makefile to use PGXS automatically.
- Add wait-timeout option and use SET statement_timeout instead of NOWAIT.
This can avoid infinite NOWAIT loops to reorganize heavily accessed tables.
- Support native build with MSVC on Windows.
pg_reorg broke catalog definition if the target table had any dropped columns.
Now pg_reorg removes dropped columns and renumbers valid columns.
You can use pg_reorg to shrink column definitions if you have many dropped
columns. (without pg_reorg, dropped columns are filled with zero forever)
