Hi all

I've had some issues with how the procedural languages are packaged in
the Windows installer for a while, but I was very surprised to see that
plpython2 appears to be entirely absent in 9.3.

It doesn't seem to be provided via EDB's StackBuilder app either.

What's going on? It looks like it was dropped in 9.1.

PL/Python 2 and PL/Python 3 are different things. You can't just upgrade
trivially from plpython2 to plpython3.

Python 2 and Python 3 install side-by-side without issues.

Why isn't plpython2.dll built and included?

It's good to see that the required procedural language runtime versions
are now included in "installation-notes.html" in the installer, though.
Thanks for that.

(Any thoughts on my prior question about using virtual service accounts
on Windows 7, btw?)
