Hi,
I am not absolutly sure this is a bug, but consider this:

I am about to create a database with 5 schemas each containing about 70
tables. Importing data via "psql <database> -f <file>.

After import I rename the schema "public" to eg. "base1", create a
new schema "public", import the next database etc.

Now the problem is I yse the datatype "serial" which creates then
constraint "default nextval('public.abc_sew'::test)".

When renaming the schema from "public" to "base1" all indexes and
seqenses are renames correct, but not the above "public." in the
constraint.

Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

createdb test
psql test
CREATE TABLE ta1 (f1 serial, f2 integer);
ALTER SCHEMA public RENAME TO base1;
\d base1.*

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Only by manual "ALTER TABLE ta1 ALTER f1 SET DEFAULT etc.

But doing this for 5 schemas each having 70 tables is somewhat stupud.

Even via a seperate file with all the "ALTER" is no solution as this is
an unfineshed project with frequent changes on the tables and thus
possible changes in this file.

A posibility to select a default schema with eg. "SET" on import would be
a really nice feature:

SET DEFAULT SCHEMA base1;

CREATE TABLE ....

COPY FROM stdin ....

etc.
