E.4. Release Notes for Tantor SE-1C 16.10.2 #

Release date: 2025-10-09

E.4.1. Review #

Tantor SE-1C is a Russian-made DBMS based on the updated and improved version of the PostgreSQL DBMS. Tantor SE-1C 16.10.2 is based on PostgreSQL 16.

Below are the additional modules and utilities added to Tantor SE-1C, as well as a list of changes to the server core.

E.4.2. Changes #

Packaging and installation changes:

  • Revised shared library lookup: the DBMS no longer relies on /etc/ld.so.conf.d entries for /opt/Postgresql/db/16/lib. Shared objects are resolved via embedded RPATH/RUNPATH in PostgreSQL binaries.

  • Upgrade compatibility: postinst now invokes ldconfig -n /opt/Postgresql/db/16/lib/ to refresh the dynamic linker cache for the DBMS library directory only, ensuring correct resolution on systems that previously used ld.so.conf.d.

  • Rationale (ALT Linux): addresses an issue where, after apt-get dist-upgrade and initramfs rebuild, paths from ld.so.conf.d were not included in the initramfs image. As a result, udevd in initramfs could not load libzstd.so, causing the boot process to stop at the initramfs stage.

  • User impact: no actions required; the change is transparent during installation and upgrade.

E.4.3. Migration to version 16.10.2 #

When upgrading within the current major version and edition, install Tantor SE-1C 16.10.2 and restart the database server with command:

systemctl restart tantor-se-1c-server-16

To migrate from PostgreSQL or Tantor DB, first install the latest minor version and then perform a data dump/restore using pg_dumpall, or use the pg_upgrade utility.
