This has a trivial workaround - just set PGHOST for pg_ctl:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] inst.codfix.5705]$
PGHOST=/home/andrew/pgl/inst.codfix.5705 bin/pg_ctl -D data/ -l logfile -w
start
That would be fine for a particular installation, but isn't really
suitable for a startup script shipped with a linux distribution. Sure,
a /bin/sh-based postgresql.conf parser could do the trick... but I just
don't feel like writing one. :-)
I think it's broken for a distro to ship with config files setting a
socket dir other than the one they compile in.
If you don't like /tmp compile in something else. The you don't need to
parse anything.
