laurenz/oracle_fdw ORACLE_FDW_2_5_0

Release 2.5.0

on GitHub

Many thanks to @michi-zuri for building Windows binaries!

Enhancements:

• Improve the Makefile so that the build process automatically detects Oracle Instant Client installations installed by packages on Linux.
  Patch by @chrullrich.

Bugfixes:

• Use the correct user mapping for views on foreign tables.
  This should use the mapping associated with the view owner.
  Reported by @JSilex.

• Fix a spurious error on UPDATE or DELETE if the column options key and"strip_zeros are used on the same column.
  Report and patch by @nori-shinoda.

• Fix “out of memory” and other errors on Linux systems with FIPS enabled.
  The cause is that calculating MD5 hashes on such systems causes errors.
  Reported by @HankDrews.

• Handle Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE correctly.
  Oracle converts such values to its session time zone on output, but does not add a time zone offset, so PostgreSQL interpreted them incorrectly.
