PGEXT 1.6.0
Released on 2026-11-09.
PGEXT 1.6.0 improves the live catalog and native-build guidance, fixes legacy
RPM repository detection, and refreshes extension metadata and bilingual usage
guides. It follows the native build and repository-management commands introduced
in 1.5.0.
Web application
- Derive homepage and About-page totals from the active catalog snapshot,
including Universe entries, packaged entries, package families, and target slots. - Refresh extension details and package matrices when catalog data changes,
including updates that retain the same matrix timestamp and row count. - Show native PGEXT build instructions according to recipe availability,
independently of whether binary packages have been published. - Preserve server-side package version ordering and improve responsive navigation.
Native builds and configuration
- Recognize legacy Pigsty RPM repository key paths during repository migration.
- Add OpenBao and KES to generated infrastructure package selections.
- Update the CLI, API, and builder documentation for the current native workflow.
Catalog and documentation
- Refresh the 2,733-entry Universe and 626-entry packaged baseline, including
repository activity, source links, package versions, and build capabilities. - Update package metadata for
pg_search0.26.6,pg_improv0.14.0,
pg_tokenizerandvchord_bm251.1.0, andlogin_hook1.9. - Keep Pigsty as the principal supplier for
login_hook; retain the curated
supplier choices for AGE and the Citus family. - Refresh bilingual usage guides, extension pages, and the PGDG availability matrix.
- Reject mismatched English/Chinese package release histories before overwriting
the changelog CSV. Add regression coverage and a CI regeneration check.
Downloads and compatibility
Downloads include Linux and macOS archives for amd64 and arm64, Linux RPM/DEB
packages for both architectures, and SHA-256 checksums in checksums.txt.
The build baseline remains Go 1.27.3, Hugo Extended 0.168.0, and OINK 1.5.1.
The 1.5.0 command migration still applies: pgext pkg builds packages,
pgext matrix queries availability, and pgext repo summary queries repository
metadata. See the build workflow
and server reference.
