Oh sorry I thought I posted somewhere that this was me-- I don't make an effort to implement the binary Postgres protocol in the way that DuckDB itself needs, so...
Indeed it's an issue with Buenavista-- we hack some of the postgres catalog to make it work with DuckDB, but there is still plenty of stuff that different clients want...

okay I've read the relevant doc section and I think I see what needs doing
@actuary87 so I _think_ something like this will work, tho I likely don't have all of the binary format details for e.g. datetimes correct yet: https://github.com/jwills/buenavista/pull/23
@actuary87 ah, that’s excellent! I’m actually in Asia right now on vacation, but will take a look when I get back to my hotel later!
