Okay, I feel dumb now.
It looks like Oliver Elphick (the package maintainer) changed the
default authentication methods. Before local users were "trust" now they
are "password".
Thing is, if it's password, how do you know the password for user
postgres?
This (a note) should be in the package pages, or at least told the user
during upgrade.
