Probably you want
vacuumdb -U postgres -a
The -a tells it to do all databases, and the -U postgres tells it to
connect as the postgresql superuser. If your superuser is something
other than postgres (sometimes it is -- pgsql for instance -- but
rarely), you should use that username instead. This is the
_database_ user name, not the UNIX username (which is what root would
be). You'll need the (postgresql) password for the account in
question to do this.
