It seems the mail I sent in reply to Martin Pitt never arrived - and
because I don't check launchpad terribly often I have only just noticed,
sorry.

In my haste, I misread that as "snakeoil cart"...  it's been a long day today.  
Anyway:

b...@mail:~$ ls -ld /etc/ssl/private
drwx--x--- 2 root ssl-cert 4096 2008-11-05 21:57 /etc/ssl/private
b...@mail:~$ sudo ls -l /etc/ssl/private/
[sudo] password for ben: 
total 4
-rw-r----- 1 root ssl-cert 887 2008-11-05 21:57 ssl-cert-snakeoil.key

Note that this output is following an uninstall of postgresql-8.3 .  For
completeness, I then attempted to reinstall postgresql-8.3 as I have
finally got around to installing a whole bunch of updates since I filed
this bug.  However I received this error from Synaptic:

E: postgresql-8.3: subprocess post-installation script returned error
exit status 1

So it looks like the issue is still there.

Thanks for your attention on this,
Ben.
