Package: postgresql-common
Version: 23
Severity: normal

Recently, the data directory of PostgreSQL has been moved from
/var/lib/postgres to /var/lib/postgresql.  The home directory of the postgres
user, if it already existed, is left at the old value, however.  This leads
to complaints when starting programs (such as pgpool) with su - postgres.  I
suggest that the postinst script check that and change the home directory if
necessary.

E.g.,

if [ "$(getent passwd postgres | cut -d : -f 6)" = "/var/lib/postgres" ]; then
        usermod -d /var/lib/postgresql postgres
fi
