issue2550549 Postgres error on message templating Exception gets thrown and not captured if nodeid is too large on postgres. Added a check in rdbms_common layer that max nodeid is < 2^31 -1. This is also the limit for INTEGER on MySql. SqlLite can support up to 2^63-1, but I chose the smallest common denominator. Large nodeid should now returns no such id rather than a stack trace. Patch idea from: martin.v.loewis. (John Rouillard) This fixes the reason for patches: https://hg.python.org/tracker/roundup/rev/1548763e8273 and https://hg.python.org/tracker/roundup/rev/eb3be57f1ef2

PostgreSQL/psycopg Backend
==========================

This are notes about PostqreSQL backend based on the psycopg adapter for
Roundup issue tracker.

Prerequisites
=============

To use PostgreSQL as backend for storing roundup data, you should
additionally install:

1. PostgreSQL 8.x or higher - http://www.postgresql.org/

2. The psycopg python interface to PostgreSQL:

     http://initd.org/software/initd/psycopg


Running the PostgreSQL unit tests
=================================

The user that you're running the tests as will need to be able to access
the postgresql database on the local machine and create and drop
databases. See the config values in 'test/db_test_base.py' 
about which database connection, name and user will be used.
