Hi,

============================================================================
POSTGRESQL BUG REPORT TEMPLATE
============================================================================

Your name : Deric Sullivan
Your email address : Deric(dot)Sullivan(at)ec(dot)gc(dot)ca

System Configuration
---------------------
Architecture (example: Intel Pentium) : Intel Pentium 4

Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF) : Linux 2.4.2-2 (from
Red Hat 7.1)

PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-7.1.1): PostgreSQL-7.2

Compiler used (example: gcc 2.95.2) : I used RPMs so I
didn't compile with gcc (although I have gcc 2.96)

Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------

When using the psql frontend, and attempting to use the command line
completion feature, psql will terminate. I get the following error message
on the terminal where the feature was attempted:

teststats=# CRpsql: relocation error: psql: undefined symbol:
rl_completion_matches

where teststats is the name of my database and "CR" are the first two
letters of the command CREATE. I pressed tab right after CR and that is
when psql terminated and returned me to my shell prompt. Not sure if it's
related, but when I'm returned to my shell prompt the keys that I type are
no longer echoed.

The feature used to work with PostgreSQL 7.1.

Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I can reproduce it everytime. Just press tab after typing CR.

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know.

Thanks,
Deric
