As a result packaged firebird_fdw cannot be loaded into PostgreSQL 15:

postgres=# create extension firebird_fdw;
ERROR:  could not load library "/usr/pgsql-15/lib/firebird_fdw.so": /usr/pgsql-15/lib/firebird_fdw.so: undefined symbol: pg_atoi

I fixed this in commit 69708a6. As I haven't yet managed to finalized a release with PostgreSQL 15 compatibility (will do so towards the end of the month), you are presumably attempting to load a binary compiled for an older version?

I used Devrim's rebuild for postgresql-15 from PGDG repo. I do not know how he was able to build an older version against Postgresql-15.

I will check the source package and comment if he provided a patch himself or if the package was just not validated thoroughly before publishing.

Oh, interesting. That sounds like it shouldn't have happened.

FYI firebird_fdw 1.3.0 is now released with PostgreSQL 15 support; no PGDG packages yet, but I have created RHEL7/8 packages via Copr in case of any use:

In some cases pg_strtoint64(s) can works in place of pg_atoi, see. https://github.com/petere/pguint/pull/21/files
