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_search 0.26.6, pg_improv 0.14.0,
    pg_tokenizer and vchord_bm25 1.1.0, and login_hook 1.9.
  • 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.
