it makes more sense to add devhelp as run_depends for gnome-session and
leave it to the user to install it manually for other packages

it from the default. Remove the section, people running systems large
enough to need a higher value should already know about the sysctl.

pyPgSQL is a package of two modules that provide a Python DB-API 2.0
compliant interface to PostgreSQL databases. The first module, libpq,
exports the PostgreSQL C API to Python. This module is written in C and
can be compiled into Python or can be dynamically loaded on demand. The
second module, PgSQL, provides the DB-API 2.0 compliant interface and
support for various PostgreSQL data types, such as INT8, NUMERIC, MONEY,
BOOL, ARRAYS, etc. This module is written in Python.

PyGreSQL is a BSD licensed open-source Python module that interfaces
to a PostgreSQL database. It embeds the PostgreSQL query library to
allow easy use of the powerful PostgreSQL features from a Python
script.

mapper. Its primary goal is to provide an object-oriented layer with
what we consider to be the key aspects of OO, i.e. polymorphism and
message dispatch, without hindering the power of an RDBMS. It is
designed to "feel pythonic", without encouraging the typical ORM
behavior such as potato programming.
Axiom provides a full interface to the database, which strongly
suggests that you do not write any SQL of your own. Metaprogramming is
difficult and dangerous (as many, many SQL injection attacks amply
demonstrate). Writing your own SQL is still possible, however, and
Axiom does have several methods which return fragments of generated
schema if you wish to use them in your own queries.

This caused lots of problems with the calendar and other stuff because the
evolution-data-server didn't run correctly.
Well, evolution-data-server is currently broken because of the libsoup
major update. It needs an update to a more recent version.
pgFouine is a PostgreSQL log analyzer used to generate detailed reports
from a PostgreSQL log file. pgFouine can help you to determine which
queries you should optimize to speed up your PostgreSQL based
application.

pgloader imports data from a flat file and insert it into a database
table. It uses a flat file per database table, and you can configure as
many Sections as you want, each one associating a table name and a data
file.

you apply this and restore afterwards!
Additionally, implicit typecasts are history and not supported anymore.
Versions prior to 8.3 had the feature (some say bug) that functions,
expecting an argument to be of a certain type, have casted a variable of
any other type to the expected type, if possible.
This has changed now. Tests surfaced rare occurrences of regressions,
which were then fixed in about ten minutes - and that code was not even
in the ports tree; no issues found there.
A few more things have changed, namely tsearch2 went from contrib to the
core and native uuid type support was added; for details read the
release announcement at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/release-8-3.html.
