Hmm, it's meant to be changed automatically. > Reinstalling postgresql-common did not correct the entry. Right, that change is done by the transitional 'postgresql' package, not by postgresql-common. Installing/upgrading the current postgresql 7.5.16 package should help, though; does it? > This may be the correct behavior, but incase it's not, you've been > warned :). No, it's not, thanks for you report. :) > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ ls /var/lib/post* -d > /var/lib/postgrsql Now, *that* looks wrng :) So, to be honest, I'm not sure what happened here. 'postgrsql' doesn't appear anywhere in the postgresql nor postgresql-common sources, and I never heard that this path was created at some time. Do you have an idea how this directory could have been misnamed?
