Thread: postgres user home dir
Good afternoon all,
Just writing to confirm that the postgresql-common package will _always_ create the postgres user to have its home directory in /var/lib/postgresql? Is that configurable at all?
Thanks,

Hi Don,
You can configure it by creating the user before installing the package

Ok but otherwise the package will always use /var/lib/postgresql then if it is the one creating the user?
Thanks,
