Yea, I know it is unstable, but I use it because Debian 2.1 is old! I figure
it is one of the problems with bash & libreadlineg2, because psql started fine
with 'psql -n testdb', but then of course, I lose the ability to edit the
command line and history. Owell, until I upgrade bash that is what I get.
Thanks,
