  - Major change in UTF-8 handling. If client_encoding is set to UTF-8, 
    always mark returned Perl strings as utf8. See the pg_enable_utf8 docs
    for more information.

libdbd-pg-perl (1.42-1) unstable; urgency=low

  DBD::Pg changed its behaviour concerning the use of placeholders. It
  implements now server side placeholders, this is more efficient but has the
  drawback of being more strict in the syntax of placeholder as it must
  match what PostgreSQL will accept.

  Here are some examples of things which used to be accepted and which aren't
  any more (you can easily extrapolate for other types):
  SELECT ... WHERE pdate > now() - interval ?
  SELECT inet ?
  The correct queries are:
  SELECT ... WHERE pdate > now() - ?::interval
  SELECT ?::inet

  If you don't want to replace the queries, a simple work around is to disable
  the server side queries with:
  $dbh->{pg_server_prepare} = 0;
