Hi, Wolfgang,

If all free java sdks implement jdbc3, I don't see any real reason to
provide jdbc2 builds at all. AFAIK, JDBC standards are meant to be
compatible for older clients, so every jdbc2 app should work fine
against jdbc3 implementations.

Alternatively, what do you think about having a libpg-jdbc3-java and
libpg-jdbc2-java, the first one beeing in main. We could then obsolete
libpg-java and make it a virtual package depending on both of them, this
would also solve bug #275417 in an elegant way :-)

Okay, I'll do so. But this might lead into a difficult build environment
setup including conflicts etc. :-(

But hey!, Standard compliance is something we should strive for, so
let's try and change the Standard :-) [Alexandre Oliva, GCC Developer]
