[GRASS-user] v.in.ogr from PostGIS - how to avoid primary key to become cat

[Patrick S.]

Dear list,

sorry for writing several times in such a short time, but every start is 
a little hard....
When importing from PostGIS, v.in.ogr will remove the column with the 
primary key and use the objects as "cat". Is there a way to avoid this 
behaviour, e.g a flag?
I just copied the table now in SQL, and imported the copy, but I guess 
that is not really the best way to handle this.

During my search I found a post to the mailing-list from 2008 on this 
issue, but no answer to that one.
