ok, patch applied. Thansk a lot. Holger, please, could you review it
when you've got time?

Also, Sergey, please, next time it would be better if you could send a
diff file (either with 'cvs diff -u' or, if you're using a released
tarball, 'diff -u). Also, please, add a ChangeLog entry for the changes
you do (that's libgda/ChangeLog).

hmm, right. The postgres provider is just returning the index name, and
nothing else. So I guess we should decide a set of fields for it. Could
you please come up with a proposal for what you'll need for it?

yes, the names are not really important, it's just the position of the
field. Anyway, if you can return the same names, that would be better,
although, as I say, it's not really important.
