Who maintains php-pgsql package? I want to ask about using PostgreSQL 8.4 library instead of PostgreSQL 8.1.
How do I find out who is the maintainer of the php-pgsql package, please? I want to request upgrade from underlying postgresql-libs-8.1.21 (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.4) to postgresql84-libs-8.4.4 (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.5.2).
Background on this request: Apache httpd's php's php-pgsql uses PostgreSQL 8.1 library (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.4), which leaks memory. PostgreSQL 8.4 library does not leak.
Apache HTTP Server: httpd-2.2.3-43.el5.centos.3
mod_php: php-5.1.6-27.el5
PHP PostgreSQL interface is provided by: php-pgsql-5.1.6-27.el5, which uses postgresql-libs-8.1.21-1.el5_5.1 which provides /usr/lib64/libpq.so.4 which we've observed has a memory leak (and this memory leak is NOT present in libpq.so.5.2)
I am trying to figure out how to get our httpd/mod_php/php-pgsql to use libpq.so.5.2 instead of libpq.so.4, and I thought I'd start by asking the php-pgsql maintainer, so this problem is fixed for everybody, not just for me.
Please let me know if I can help in any way.
Kind regards, Aleksey

that would be redhat.

not unless redhat upgrades, something they aren't likely to do, although they might backport the fix for this leak.

use the Postgres 8.4 RPMs from http://yum.pgrpms.org/ along with the compat-postgresql-libs package (from the same repository), which hooks the libpq.so.4 stuff that the stock EL5 clients like php-pgsql use.

If there's a legitimate leak, this would certainly be appropriate to file a bug for on bugzilla.redhat.com. This is exactly the sort of thing RH would likely fix too.

Kevin Kempter: Thank you for Devrim's name as the maintainer of php-pgsql.

That's what I am doing and php-pgsql ends up using libpq.so.4 which has the memory leak.
Ray: Thanks for your reply as well.

Just to follow up on this. Devrim of Postgres said he does not maintain php-pgsql, Red Hat does. He also added:
2010/10/18 Devrim GÜNDÜZ devrim@gunduz.org:
I don't see any way to upgrade libpq for Apache easily, except rebuilding Apache from SRPM by yourself, and using postgresql84-libs as BuildRequires instead of postgresql-libs. Unfortunately it means tons of change in package list, including even subversion...
You'd better wait for RHEL / CentOS 6.
I'll ask Red Hat for php-pgsql that uses postgresql84-libs; and try to build httpd from source myself in the meantime.
Best, -at

I've opened a bug report / enhancement request with Red Hat: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=644678
