==========================



``postgresql`` database backend

-------------------------------



The ``psycopg1`` library has not been updated since October 2005. As a

result, the ``postgresql`` database backend, which depends on this

library, has been deprecated.



If you are currently using the ``postgresql`` backend, you should

migrate to using the ``postgresql_psycopg2`` backend. To update your

code, install the ``psycopg2`` library and change the

``DATABASE_ENGINE`` setting to read ``postgresql_psycopg2``.
