Summary

Adds PostgreSQL 19 to the RPM/DEB matrix for pg_duckdb and the coldfront
extension. Packages only — container images stay on PG 16/17/18, since there is
no pgedge-postgres:19-* base image and Spock has no 19 build.

Changes

  • coldfront.c — PG 19 made post_parse_analyze_hook's JumbleState
    argument const; the signature is now #if'd on PG_VERSION_NUM >= 190000.
  • pg_duckdb pin c04e6a2ee7aaeb (PR #983, PG 16–19) in
    packaging/pg_duckdb/common.sh. Its DuckDB submodule is still the v1.5.4 tag,
    so the patched duckdb-iceberg extensions stay ABI-paired.
  • packaging/patches/ (new) — pg_duckdb-pg19-ruleutils.patch re-syncs
    pg_duckdb's vendored PG-19 deparser with PG 19 as released (the GROUP BY ALL
    revert and ForPortionOfExpr.range_namerangeVar); without it the
    extension does not compile against 19. apply-pg19-ruleutils-patch.sh applies
    it only for PG ≥ 19, skips when the change is already present (re-run, or
    upstream refreshing its copy), and fails loudly on patch rot.
  • PG_MAX_VER passed on both formats — upstream's Makefile.global defaults
    it to 18 and hard-errors above that. In deb/debian/rules it is exported
    rather than passed per-target: dh runs clean first and dh_auto_clean's
    make distclean hits the same cap, so every PG 19 DEB cell failed before
    compiling anything.
  • Regress variants cte_on_insert_2.out, param_cold_via_plpgsql_2.out
    PG 19 renamed EXPLAIN's InitPlan identifiers ($3(InitPlan 3).col1 in 18
    (InitPlan expr_1).col1 in 19). Cosmetic; the emitted SQL is identical.
  • Docs updated (DUCKDB_1.5_PATCHED.md, docs/installation.md), including the
    two distinct pg_duckdb pins (packages vs. image).

Verification

  • run-ci-local.sh preflight 8/8; PG 18 pg_regress 48/48 and journey 454/0.
  • PG 19: pg_regress 48/48 against a real PG 19beta3 server with the built
    packages installed — extensions load and the rewrite hooks fire, not just compile.
  • All four packages build on staging: pgedge-coldfront_19,
    pgedge-pg-duckdb_19 (RPM, el9) and pgedge-postgresql-19-coldfront,
    pgedge-postgresql-19-pg-duckdb (DEB, bookworm).
  • Base image still builds for PG 16/17/18 at the unchanged pin.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds PostgreSQL 19 support to pg_duckdb packaging. It applies a guarded ruleutils patch, passes the target PostgreSQL version to package builds, updates package pins and release detection, and documents the package-only support path.

Changes

PostgreSQL 19 packaging support

Layer / File(s) Summary
PostgreSQL 19 compatibility changes
packaging/patches/pg_duckdb-pg19-ruleutils.patch, extension/coldfront/src/coldfront.c
The ruleutils patch updates PostgreSQL 19 deparser compatibility. The Coldfront hook documentation records the const JumbleState contract for PostgreSQL 19 and later.
Patch application and build configuration
packaging/patches/apply-pg19-ruleutils-patch.sh, packaging/pg_duckdb/build-deb.sh, packaging/pg_duckdb/build-rpm.sh, packaging/pg_duckdb/deb/debian/rules, packaging/pg_duckdb/rpm/pg_duckdb.spec, packaging/pg_duckdb/common.sh
The package builds apply the patch when required. Debian and RPM builds pass the target PostgreSQL major through PG_MAX_VER. The default package pin changes to the PostgreSQL 19 support commit.
Release detection and version documentation
.github/workflows/release.yml, DUCKDB_1.5_PATCHED.md, docs/installation.md
Release detection includes PostgreSQL 19. Documentation separates package and base-image pins and describes the package-only PostgreSQL 19 path.
