RE: BUG #17634: Inconsistent view_definition in information_schema.views

Then perhaps the rule decompiler should be used when populating a column that implies it contains the view definition -
becauseit is not the correct definition. No snark intended, just my thoughts. On a related note, having dependencies
forall object (including functions and procedures) available in postgres would be awesome. You all provide a great
productfor us opensource users, and it's appreciated.

This is not a bug, it's normal behavior of the rule decompiler:
object names are qualified only if necessary (where "necessary"
means "would not be found in a search_path search").

If you don't like it, set search_path to empty.
