I have PostgreSQL 7.3.2 on Mandrake 9.1.
functions lower and upper doesn't convert UTF8 char cases... it just
leave them as thay are. Atleast I have problems with latvian and russian
letters. Database charset is set to UNICODE. Where is the problem and
what I should do?

Yes, next time please search the archives and you would have seen that
this bug gets reported at least once per week.

There is not much you can do right now except not using Unicode. Search
the archives for possible ideas and workarounds.
