Steps to reproduce:

Open some PostgreSQL connection.
Run a query that would retrieve a boolean column - e.g.

DBI::dbGetQuery(con, "select true as c1")

Inspect resulting data.frame in R.

Expected behavior: boolean DB results should translate to R logical type (TRUE/FALSE).

Actual behavior: boolean DB results translate to R character type ("0"/"1").

Issue is not present with RPostgreSQL and RPostgres.

Nevermind, just realized there's a connection option BoolsAsChar=0; in postgre.
