Thanks everyone - I installed dpkg-dev, and it now produces a
different message:
rod@simecom:~$ psql -U postgres -h localhost
DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH is not a supported variable name at
/usr/bin/dpkg-architecture line 214.
Password for user postgres:
psql (9.1.1)
SSL connection (cipher: DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits: 256)
Type "help" for help.
postgres=#
It's not a big deal for me - Postgres is obviously working OK for me,
which is the main thing, so I'll wait for the new packages. Do you
know if they'll be available from backports, or do I get them elsewhere?
Thanks for your help,
Ray.
