Hello,
We are using PGSQL 8.3.4

I have problem to grant privileges to a sequence.
If I grant all to the user I can do something like :
SELECT nextval('reflex_cited_reports_id');
SELECT nextval('reflex_cited_reports_id');
 nextval 
----------
 40442939
(1 row)


BUT if I grant the same priv to the group (that include the user) :

SELECT nextval('reflex_cited_reports_id');
ERROR:  permission denied for sequence reflex_cited_reports_id

some info :

canlii_integration_tests=# SELECT nextval('reflex_cited_reports_id');
 nextval 
----------
 40442939
(1 row)

canlii_integration_tests=# SELECT * from pg_roles where
rolname='soft_reflex_externe';
       rolname       | rolsuper | rolinherit | rolcreaterole |
rolcreatedb | rolcatupdate | rolcanlogin | rolconnlimit | rolpassword |

canlii_integration_tests=# SELECT * from pg_group where
groname='reflex_lecteurs';
     groname     | grosysid |

Is it a bug ? Or am i doing something wrong
