When canceling a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY operation after swapping is done, a drop of the parent table would leave behind old indexes. This is a consequence of 68ac9cf, which fixed the case of pg_depend bloat when repeating REINDEX CONCURRENTLY on the same relation. In order to take care of the problem without breaking the previous fix, this uses a different strategy, possible even with the exiting set of routines to handle dependency changes. The dependencies of/on the new index are additionally switched to the old one, allowing an old invalid index remaining around because of a cancellation or a failure to use the dependency links of the concurrently-created index. This ensures that dropping any objects the old invalid index depends on also drops the old index automatically.

This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
