At the very end of the emerge process the following instructions
are given:
>>> Execute the following command
>>> ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-db/postgresql/postgresql-7.3.1.ebuild.ebuild config
>>> to setup the initial database environment.
>>>
>>> Make sure the postgres user in /etc/passwd has an account setup with /bin/bash
as the shell, or /bin/true
This will set up everything.
