#3680: PostGIS upgrade scripts missing GRANT for views
---------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  robe     |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  blocker  |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.2.5
Component:  postgis  |    Version:  2.2.x
 Keywords:           |
---------------------+---------------------------
 As noted in https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-
 users/2016-December/041815.html

 using


 {{{
  ALTER EXTENSION POSTGIS UPDATE TO '2.2.2';
 }}}

 Seems to not set GRANT rights on the geometry_columns, raster_columns, and
 geography_columns views.

 I checked one of the extension update scripts postgis-2.2.3-2.3.1.sql and
 it has CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW .. but missing these lines that are in the
 full extension script.


 {{{
 -- make views and spatial_ref_sys public viewable --
 GRANT SELECT ON TABLE geography_columns TO public;
 GRANT SELECT ON TABLE geometry_columns TO public;
 GRANT SELECT ON TABLE spatial_ref_sys TO public;
 }}}


 So I suspect it's been like that for a while.
