I ran into an issue migrating from 9.1 to 9.3 on ubuntu using pg_upgrade

the default ubuntu package, and the one from postgresql.org, both store 
`postgresql.conf` in etc as `/etc/postgresql/VERSION/main/postgresql.conf`

however, the pg_upgrade script expects it in the `datadir`.

the simple solution seems to be just symlinking the /etc files into the data 
dirs.  

it took me a while to realize this was the error.

it might make sense to upgrade the docs with a note about what should be in the 
data dir to enable an upgrade.
