The version of Ubuntu is 12.10.

I am not sure what version of PostgreSQL it install but it is now 9.1

No other packages were installed (I installed 'make' to try and see the
documentation).

So how do I uninstall postgreSQL-XC if that is the problem?

You should not have to reinstall the OS that is a Windows thing. A fuller
explanation of how you got to this point would be helpful though.

What version of Ubuntu are you on?

What Postgres did you initially install?

Did you install any other packages when you encountered the error, other
than Postgres-XC?

FYI as far as I know when you use the Ubuntu(Debian) package it runs initdb
as part of the install and you should not have to.
