I've just compiled the latest postgresql on gentoo linux. I don't have
anything like /etc/postgresql or /var/lib/postgresql. The only thing it
created during compilation is a /usr/share/postgresql with some
pg_hba.conf.sample and postgresql.conf.sample (and also
/usr/share/doc/postgresql-7.3.1). When I start postmaster it says it can't cd
to /var/lib/postgres which indeed doesn't exists. Do I need to create all
them myself or did I miss something?
thanx in advance
