All fixed now. To complete the thread this is what I did:

1) Removed Slackware packages for postgresql-10.3 and -11.1.
2) Removed /var/lib/pgsql/10.3 and 11.1.
3) Re-built postgresql-11.1 and re-installed it.
4) As user 'postgres' ran initdb and pg_ctl start pointing to
/var/lib/pgsql/11/data.
5) Edited postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf to accept connections from all
hosts on the LAN.
6) Re-started postgres.
7) As 'postgre' ran
pg_dumpall -h salmo -c -f pg-all-2018-11-14.sql
8) Then postgres ran
psql -f pg-all-2018-11-14.sql

Now I, as a user, can access my databases without a password.

Thank you, Adrian, for your patient help. And you, Tom, for your helpful
comment.

Best regards,
