* Sigh, build is broken again

Someone checked in code that assumes vsnprintf() exists.

Should be cool, we have an emulation right?  Well, no.
configure sets up to build port/snprintf.c if snprintf()
doesn't exist.  HPUX, for one, has that but not vsnprintf.

I guess the right fix is for configure to check for *both*
snprintf and vsnprintf --- anyone see a problem with that?

Oops, that was me, today.  Patch attached.  This is not the time to be
adding new portability calls.

Comments on how to handle this?

	Ya...back it out until after v6.4 is released, and then we will
handle it then *major glare*

	After v6.4 is released, sounds great to me...before, I send guys
around to break fingers :)

There are two ways we can look at this:

1. It's a simple oversight in configure, trivially fixable (need to
build snprintf.o if *either* snprintf or vsnprintf is missing).

2. We have never used vsnprintf before (if we had, the build would've
failed for me before).  So, if we let the new trace code stand, we
are depending on untested emulation code in snprintf.c and/or system
library routines of unproven reliability.

Ordinarily I'd go for view #1 without a second thought ... but when
we're only four days before a major release, view #2 has to be taken
seriously.  The risk may be low, but there's not time to gain confidence
that vsnprintf is dependable.

Marc's opinion appears to be that we should just revert the code;
the buffer-overrun bug is presumably of long standing, so people can
live with it a while longer.  I think I agree with him.

So, my vote is to back out the trace.c patch, and re-apply as soon as
6.4 is out.  I'll add the necessary stuff to configure at that time too.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 969+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38  Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.
