The file doc/src/sgml/installation.sgml has the new and improved
directions, namely:
./configure
gmake
su
gmake install
adduser postgres
mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
su - postgres
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql test
(note the all-important 'chown' line)
It looks as if this has not made it's way into the top-level
INSTALL file. Maybe somebody could remedy that? (and the online
docs too?)
