Migration to Version 8.0.2</A ></H2 ><P > A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.0.*.

Changes</A ></H2 ><P ></P ><UL ><LI ><P >Increment the major version number of all interface libraries (Bruce)</P ><P >This should have been done in 8.0.0. It is required so 7.4.X versions of PostgreSQL client applications, like <SPAN CLASS="APPLICATION" >psql</SPAN >, can be used on the same machine as 8.0.X applications. This might require re-linking user applications that use these libraries.</P ></LI ><LI ><P >Add Windows-only <TT CLASS="VARNAME" >wal_sync_method</TT > setting of <TT CLASS="OPTION" >fsync_writethrough</TT > (Magnus, Bruce)</P ><P >This setting causes <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN > to write through any disk-drive write cache when writing to WAL.
