- Require clang/llvm-devel metapackages instead of directly
requiring the latest version. With clang migrating away from
update-alternatives, the versioned packages no longer provide the
/usr/bin/clang symlink, which will now be contained in the
metapackage only. If older LLVM versions are required, the
compiler binary has to be provided via CLANG=clang-<N>.

* Tue Feb 24 2026 max@suse.com
- bsc#1258754: Update to 16.13 to fix two regressions in 16.12:
* https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/16.13/
* The substring() function raises an error "invalid byte sequence
for encoding" on non-ASCII text values if the source of

- Use %product_libs_llvm_ver to determine the LLVM version.

- Upgrade to 16.11:
* https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/p-3171/
* https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/16.11/
* bsc#1253332, CVE-2025-12817: Missing check for CREATE
privileges on the schema in CREATE STATISTICS allowed table
owners to create statistics in any schema, potentially leading
to unexpected naming conflicts.
* bsc#1253333, CVE-2025-12818: Several places in libpq were not
sufficiently careful about computing the required size of a
memory allocation. Sufficiently large inputs could cause
integer overflow, resulting in an undersized buffer, which
would then lead to writing past the end of the buffer.
* Tue Sep 23 2025 max@suse.com
- Sync spec file from version 18.
Version: 16.1-150200.5.7.1
* Wed Nov 08 2023 max@suse.com
- Upgrade to 16.1:
* bsc#1216962, CVE-2023-5868: Fix handling of unknown-type
arguments in DISTINCT "any" aggregate functions. This error led
to a text-type value being interpreted as an unknown-type value
(that is, a zero-terminated string) at runtime. This could
result in disclosure of server memory following the text value.
* bsc#1216961, CVE-2023-5869: Detect integer overflow while
computing new array dimensions. When assigning new elements to
array subscripts that are outside the current array bounds, an
undetected integer overflow could occur in edge cases. Memory
stomps that are potentially exploitable for arbitrary code
execution are possible, and so is disclosure of server memory.
* bsc#1216960, CVE-2023-5870: Prevent the pg_signal_backend role
from signalling background workers and autovacuum processes.
The documentation says that pg_signal_backend cannot issue
signals to superuser-owned processes. It was able to signal
these background processes, though, because they advertise a
role OID of zero. Treat that as indicating superuser ownership.
The security implications of cancelling one of these process
types are fairly small so far as the core code goes (we'll just
start another one), but extensions might add background workers
that are more vulnerable.
Also ensure that the is_superuser parameter is set correctly in
such processes. No specific security consequences are known for
that oversight, but it might be significant for some extensions.
* Add support for LLVM 16 and 17

as well, otherwise the symlink for ecpg might be missing.
* Mon Sep 18 2023 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Also buildignore the postgresql*-implementation symbols: this is
needed in order to bootstrap when no postgresql version currently
has valid symbols provided. Once the packages are built, OBS
could translate this to the pgname-* packages and accept the
ignores; during bootstrap though, there is nothing providing the
symbol and the existing buildignores do not suffice.
