Package: postgresql-8.3
Version: 8.3.6-1
Severity: minor

The initscript for postgresql-8.3, /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3, along with the 
usual start/stop/restart/status/etc commands, also has the commands 
autovac-start, autovac-stop and autovac-restart. However these are not backed 
up by any code in the script, so whenever the user uses these commands, the 
shell prints a "command not found" error. Specifically, the three shell 
functions autovac_start, autovac_stop and autovac_restart are no longer 
defined in the script. Since these functions are also obsolete, given how 
autovacuuming is done in recent versions of the postgresql packages, these 
commands should be removed from the script, that is from the case statement 
as well as the usage message. This is presumably very easy to fix. Thank you 
for your time!
