For regression tests, I'd like to automatically set up a fresh
PostgreSQL instance. Has anybody automated the task (initdb, setting
a password, choosing a port at random, starting the server, and after
running the tests, stopping the server and deleting all the
directories)? I know, it's a straightforward Perl script, but perhaps
someone else has already written it. 8-)
And:
$ fakeroot /usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin/postgres -D . postgres
"root" execution of the PostgreSQL server is not permitted.
[...]
This is a major problem when autobuilding Debian packages. 8-(
