[Fwd: Bug#255208: postgresql - ignores SIGPIPE]

This seems a reasonable request. Is it possible?

Date: Sat, 19 Jun 2004 16:52:04 +0200

Package: postgresql
Version: 7.4.3-1
Severity: important

The postgres daemon ignores SIGPIPE. This makes it impossible to cancel
queries if the client is not able to issue a cancel command, like the
perl and python bindings.

The code contains a signal handler for SIGINT which cancels the actual
query, so I see no problem to have SIGPIPE behave the same way.
