This issue is documented in the create_postgresql_database script. If Debian does not use this script, then they should be doing essentially the same thing (setting the encoding to SQL_ASCII or UTF8 depending on how you are running your system). If they are not doing so, I would recommend that you file a Debian packaging bug report and refer them to the above mentioned script. Note, Bacula consoles are only guaranteed to work correctly with UTF8 setting. There is also code in the script to set the datestyle to a format that is usable by Bacula.
I believe that the documentation in the script is sufficient. If you do not agree, then please submit proposed text for the manual.
