Subject: [ANN] pg 0.10.1


Version 0.10.1 of pg has been released.

Pg is the extension library to access a PostgreSQL database from Ruby. This
library works with PostgreSQL 7.4 and later. This will be the last version of
the driver to support versions of PostgreSQL that have reached their
End-Of-Life:

  http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy

Currently, that means only versions 8.2 or later.

## Installation

## Changes

Bugfixes:

* Change use of rb_yield_splat() to rb_yield_values() for compatibility with 
  Rubinius. (fixes #54)
* Fix require for natively-compiled extension under Windows. (fixes #55)
* Fix compatibility with versions of PostgreSQL without PQgetCancel. (fixes
  #36)

Miscellaneous:

* Greatly simplified the extconf.rb, as it was making it difficult to compile
  on some platforms, and not really heading off problems for people compiling
  with the wrong architecture flags on OSX. I'll work on better diagnosis and
  error reporting for the next release.
