Hi,  
  
I’m using liquibase 2.0.3 with postgresql 9.0  
  
i found behaviour that looks strange to me  
  
I found out that start value for some sequences (not all) is changed to 2 and 3 despite it is either not specified or specified as 1.  
  
I suspect it is a bug, has anyone faced same behaviour?  
  
Regards,  
Vitaliy S

Is that in a changeSet you created? Or a diff-generated one?

Could you post the problem changeSet?
