I just tried to move my database files over from a CentOS 4.2 (RHEL AS 4
clone) machine to Debian 3.1. Unfortunately, the server complains:

2005-12-07 11:55:04 CET DETAIL:  The database cluster was initialized
without HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP but the server was compiled with
HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP.
2005-12-07 11:55:04 CET HINT:  It looks like you need to recompile or
initdb.

The message is clear enough, but I'm kinda disappointed because I am
using the official packages for both distribution:

Well, this is because Debian packages are built
with --enable-integer-datetimes. However we don't build the RPMs with that. This has been proposed before AFAIR, but it has been rejected.

So you should dump/reload I think, or rebuild our SRPM
with --enable-integer-datetimes enabled.
